Stop wasteful energy consumption today, with Smart Energy Metering Solution

Smart metering is the manner in which resource consumption, such as electricity, water and gas/fuel is monitored through metering devices connected to the Internet via IoT technology. These metering devices are referred to as smart meters. Smart metering is used for accurate resource accountability and billing but can also be used for many other real-life use cases, such as, to streamline and reduce waste in factories, identify water leaks or reduced gas pressure, promote efficient fuel consumption, or prevent theft. There is a large variety of smart meters available on the market today, however, the biggest challenge is integrating these different devices into a working smart metering solution for a company’s specific use case.

There are many advantages associated with the use of smart meters, both from consumer and utility company perspectives. Businesses use smart meters to reduce their operational costs considerably, as they get the better visibility of the consumption giving more control over the usage. These solutions also help to increase the billing accuracy too. This also benefits consumers since smart meters also reduce the inconvenience of monthly or quarterly meter readings. In the past, meters had to be placed outside of buildings or at the edge of gardens in order for meters to be read by utility company personnel. Smart meters can however be placed anywhere within the household. Due to its real-time dashboard, homeowners and renters can also monitor their energy usage.

Smart metering is also one of the most prominent IoT solutions used by large and small enterprises. However, corporates who seek to optimize their operating costs but have little experience with modern IoT technology often face basic smart metering integration troubles.
