Smart Meters Applications and Software
Course Description
Smart metering has been recognized as a major part of the smart grid system. It has been touted as a great bright hope that will enable residential electric customers to cut their usage and save electricity costs. A smart metering system is built with smart meters, control devices and a communication link. Smart metering system will help to reduce greenhouse gases as well as the consumer monthly bills. The key element of this system is the smart meter which is the combination of all energy metering and intelligence. Smart Meters are fundamentally different from ordinary electromechanical meters. Smart Metering technologies consist of several different technical components which may vary according to the specific market conditions in different Member States.

This course is targeted at people who are engaged in Energy Metering and SMART Grid activities in both the government and private sectors. Participants will typically come from a range of educational and professional backgrounds and will include development professionals who may have some insight of advanced metering issues but desire a more comprehensive understanding of the future roll-out of SMART Metering for sustainable development.

This interactive Training will be highly interactive, with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas and will include;
