This document presents information on smart energy meters. It begins with an introduction that defines a smart device and smart energy meter. The history section discusses the early development of sensor technology in the 1970s that led to the first smart meters. The purpose section outlines benefits for utility companies, such as reduced costs and prevention of energy theft, and benefits for customers like increased awareness of energy usage. The document discusses some criticisms around security, health, privacy, and overheating. It also provides information on India's smart meter program and concludes that smart meters are an important part of the smart grid and fulfill future electricity demands in a safe manner when specifications are followed.

3. INTRODUCTION
• An electronic device is called as smart device if it is capable of computing
data autonomously and can establish communication with other devices for
exchanging data .
• Smart energy meter maintains the record of electricity consumption as well as
it is enable of two way communication between customer and service
provider .

4. HISTORY
• In 1972 Theodore Paraskevakas developed a sensor for monitoring
system which is use the digital transmission for security , fire , medical
emergency along with meter reading capability .
• In 1974 he lunched METRTAEK NETWORK , INC. which developed
and provide the first smart meter .
• That was the pre-internet era so they use the 1BM series 1 mini-
computer .

5. PURPOSE & BENEFITS
For utility companies :-
• Easy to match energy consumption and generation in both peak time and low
time .
• Smart meter can easily connect or disconnect the service .
• Customers can pay through internet by reading the meter themselves so the
labour cost is highly reduced .
• Misprint during billing should completely reduced .
• No more energy theft .

6. PURPOSE & BENEFITS
For customers :-
• They should aware about there energy uses so that they can reduce there
consumption .
• Real time pricing encourage people to adjust their consumption habit .
• Payment options like prepaid etc .
• A survey says this system reduce the energy consumption by 7 – 9 % .
• This is a win-win situation for both utility and customer .

7. CRITICISM
• Security :- Cyber attack and energy theft .
Implementing the security protocols .
• Health and safety :- Rf radiation emission .
• Privacy concern :-The respective utility company get know the behavioural
pattern and may they sell the data .
• Over heating :- Occur in few mostly in 1st generation meters .

8. WORKING PRINCIPLE

9. INDIAON SMART METER
• Under Smart Meter National Program (SMNP) the Energy Efficiency
Service of India (EESI) had installed over 5 million smart meters in Delhi ,
UP , Haryana , Bihar and Andhra Pradesh .
• India is trying to setup its efforts to supply 24, 7 power to all and to upgrade
the power grid under which SMNP is a base project .

10. CONCLUSION
• The smart meters are completely safe for domestic as well as commercial use
, as long as they conform the specifications .
• Smart meter is based on IOT technology to fulfil the future demand of
electricity .
• Smart meter is an integral part of smart grid programme .
