Evaluation of new electricity meters. Communication protocol

Consulta en la Biblioteca ETSI Industriales (Riunet)[EN] New technologies developed (new ways of energy generation and consumption) are promoting the introduction of improvements at electricity networks. Currently, European legislation is promoting changes in electricity networks of member states. These changes include new technologies to facilitate the introduction of renewable energy sources to the grid and have a more efficient use of energy. Smart grids are able to achieve these objectives. One of the important issues at smart grids is the requirement of having good measures (to be able to control the power grid) and good communication between all the electricity market participants. Smart meters are part of the smart grid technologies and are actually useful to solve this task Smart meters have a lot of features, but the most important is the two-way communication. This really differentiates this meter and electronic meters. This Master Thesis is going to study deeply this communication to understand how it works, by developing an own program able to read the measurements taken by the meter.Fuente García, VDL. (2013).
