A smart meter is an electronic device that monitors the consumption of electricity, gas, and water with high accuracy

 



  A smart meter is a device that tracks the use of electrical, gas, and water energy. The smart meter communicates with the supplier to transmit data for monitoring and billing. Smart meters typically record energy hourly or more frequently and report at least once per day. It has a display screen that shows real-time energy consumption as well as estimated bills. A smart meter is an advanced version of a traditional metering system that uses mobile technology to automatically send readings.

  It is one of many components of the smart grid that manages energy distribution and consumption via the Internet to enable bidirectional communication, coordination, and control. Smart meters can connect to one of two types of networks: standard mobile phone networks and mesh networks. Smart meters are used in building automation systems to regulate heating, ventilation, and air conditioning based on energy consumption.

  The global smart meter is expected to grow due to the rising demand for accurate billing and increased efforts toward energy conservation. A smart meter digitally transmits readings to the energy supplier, resulting in more accurate energy bills. It enables consumers to take control of their energy consumption, allowing them to save energy for other uses such as industries and medical equipment.

  As consumers reduce their electric demand, smart meters help the environment by reducing the need to build power plants or avoiding the use of older, less efficient power plants. The advantages of having a smart meter are that when suppliers have a better understanding of usage patterns, more innovations in the types of tariffs energy suppliers offer can be made.
