Chapter 12 - ELECTRICAL DRIVERS FOR SMART METERING

The drivers of the Smart Grid can be split into two categories. The first, the original one, is purely electrical'. The original reason for AMR was purely concerned with the electrical grid, to read meters more efficiently. These functions of AMI are purely electrical, in that they are embellishments of the grid to make it more efficient or more useful. These drive Smart Metering from a purely electrical aspect.

Chapter 13 - GRID EDGE DRIVERS FOR SMART METERING

The Grid Edge' drivers are technologies enabling the Internet of Things, digitalisation and other related services which cannot operate without a Smart Grid. Global energy is in the midst of a transformation, as technology and innovation disrupt traditional models from generation to beyond the meter.

Chapter 14 - SMART METERING TECHNICAL AND NON-TECHNICAL LESSONS BASED ON EXPERIENCES

Many numbers of utilities around the world have started implementations of Advanced Metering Infrastructure. Some of those utilities have completed their implementation and many of the others are well down the road to completion. The extensive range of deployment experience around the world provides a tremendous learning opportunity for utilities. These are distilled into a set of useful indicators and lessons for Smart Grid deployments.

Chapter 15 - DEMAND CYCLE - PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE

The cycles of annual demand for products in the electricity sector are very different from country to country and in the future this will continue to be the case. Demand is not linear but cyclical and depends on past development, which can be charted with the historical data.

Chapter 16 - SECURITY AND THE SMART GRID

Cyber security has become a significant issue for metering with the advent of smart meters and a growing number of attacks on grids. For some time, cyber security has been an increasing concern for the IT and

Telecoms industries, and for distributed control systems throughout all industry. On December 23, 2015 a cyberattack penetrated electricity distribution control centres in Ukraine using software vulnerabilities, stolen credentials and sophisticated malware. The chapter examines vulnerabilities and current counter measures.
