In recent years, with the continuous development of the power industry and technological advancement, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) has attracted increasing attention as a new type of electricity metering device. ...
AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure), which is an important part of the smart grid. AMI system is mainly composed of AMI electricity meter, communication network, metering data management system (MDMS), home area network(HAN), is a two-way communication system between AMI power meter and power ...
AMI energy meter also called smart meter, it is smart grid electricity terminal monitor.Through AMI energy meters, utilities enable to offer new time-based rate programs and incentives that encourage customers to reduce peak demand and manage energy consumption and costs. AMI energy meter is the most important terminal hardware ...
Depending on what part of the world you live in, you are continuously exposed to terms like Grid Edge and Smart Grid. But the narrative is not the same everywhere – some regions speak of supply and demand real time optimization, and others are concerned with reliability and generating useful energy data. Are we all living different electrical grid realities? Possibly. Let’s discuss ...
Over the last decade, with the advent of smart grid technology, utilities have been prompted to invest in a wide array of networking technologies for a variety of purposes, including advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), distribution substation and feeder automation, and other monitoring and IT functions. ...
Thus, utilities are rapidly replacing our ignored ‘dumb’ meters with the new smart version. North America and Europe will replace 45% their meters with smart ones by 2015, according to Pike Research. http://www.pikeresearch.com/research/smart-meters So it is not a surprise to see that the Electric Power Research Institute weighed in ...
“No utility wants to be the weak link in the chain,” Wheelock says “The concern over grid vulnerability is driving utility technologists to work closely with systems integrators, infrastructure suppliers, and standards bodies to develop a robust framework for smart grid cyber security across multiple domains.” ...
While not unscathed by the recession, the industry sees growth in several sectors, according to recent reports. For example, use of smart meters—a key technology for better energy management and efficiency – is increasing at a rapid clip. A study by ABI Research, “Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMM and AMI),” forecasts that ...
