Abstract:
While smart metering applications have initially focused on energy and gas utility markets, water consumption has recently become the subject of increasing attention. Unfortunately, despite the large number of solutions available on the market, the lack of an open and widely accepted communication standard means that vendors typically propose proprietary data collection solutions whose adoption causes non-trivial problems to water utility companies in term of costs, vendor lock-in, and lack of control on the data collection infrastructure. There is the need for open and interoperable smart water metering solutions, capable of collecting data from the wide range of water meters on the market. This paper reports our experience in the development and field testing of a highly interoperable smart water metering solution, which we designed in collaboration with several water utility companies and which we deployed in Gorino Ferrarese, Italy, in collaboration with CADF (Consorzio Acque Delta Ferrarese), the water utility serving the city. At the core of our solution is SWaMM (Smart Water Metering Middleware), an interoperable wireless IoT middleware based on the Edge computing paradigm, which proved extremely effective in interfacing with several types of smart water meters operating with different protocols.

Abstract:
Further increases in the number of photovoltaic installations in industry and residential buildings will require technologically and economically flexible energy storage solutions. Some countries utilize net-metering strategies, which use national networks as “virtual batteries.” Despite the financial attractiveness, net-metering faces many technological and economical challenges. It could also lead to the negative tendencies in prosumer behavior, such as a decrease in motivation for the self-consumption of photovoltaic (PV)-generated electricity. Batteries, which are installed on the prosumer’s premises, could be a solution in a particular case. However, the price for battery-based storage solutions is currently sufficiently unattractive for the average prosumer. This paper aimed to present a comparison of the economic and energy related aspects between net-metering and batteries for a single case study by considering the Lithuanian context. The net present value, degree of self-sufficiency, internal rate of return, payback time, and quantified reduction of carbon emission were calculated using a specially developed Prosumer solution simulation tool (Version 1.1, Delloite, Madrid, Spain) for both the PV and net-metering and PV and batteries cases. The received results highlight that the battery-based energy storage systems are currently not an attractive alternative in terms of price where net-metering is available; a rather radical decrease in the installation price for batteries is required.

Abstract:
Abstract The described case study concerns application of wireless sensor networks to the smart control of power supply substations. The solution proposed for metering is based on the modular principle and has been tested in the intersystem communication paradigm using selectable interface modules (IEEE 802.3, ISM radio interface, GSM/GPRS). The solution modularity gives 7 % savings of maintenance costs. The developed solution can be applied to the control of different critical infrastructure networks using adapted modules. The proposed smart metering is suitable for outdoor installation, indoor industrial installations, operation under electromagnetic pollution, temperature and humidity impact. The results of tests have shown a good electromagnetic compatibility of the prototype meter with other electronic devices. The metering procedure is exemplified by operation of a testing company's workers under harsh environmental conditions.

Abstract:
The transformation of low-voltage distribution grids toward decentralized, user-centric models has increased the need for advanced metering infrastructures capable of ensuring both visibility and control. This paper presents a self-diagnostic advanced metering solution based on power-line communication deployed in a segment of the Spanish distribution network. The proposed infrastructure leverages the existing power network as a shared-media communication channel, reducing capital expenditures while enhancing system observability. A methodology is introduced for integrating smart metering data with topological and operational analytics to improve network monitoring and energy management. This study details the proposed metering infrastructure, highlighting its role in enhancing distribution network resilience through asynchronous energy measurements, event-driven analytics, and dynamic grid management strategies. The self-diagnostic module enables the detection of non-technical losses, identification of congested areas, and monitoring of network assets. Furthermore, this paper discusses the regulatory and technological challenges associated with scaling metering solutions, particularly in the context of increasing distributed energy resource penetration and evolving European Union regulatory frameworks. The findings demonstrate that a well-integrated advanced metering infrastructure system significantly improves distribution network efficiency, enabling proactive congestion detection and advanced load management techniques. However, this study also emphasizes the limitations of PLC in high-noise environments and proposes enhancements such as hybrid communication approaches to improve reliability and real-time performance. The insights provided contribute to the ongoing evolution of metering infrastructure technologies, offering a path toward more efficient and resource-optimized smart grids.

Abstract:
Currently in the smart substation, the traceability method of the digital metering system is a sub-component traceability method, which means that the electronic transformer and the digital power meter are calibrated separately. However, the calibrations of the electronic transformer and the digital power meter have been the problem of measuring department, its traceability having been unable to be a good solution. In this situation, this paper proposes a new digital metering system calibration method, and the overall error of the digital metering system can be calibrated. An on-site calibration of digital metering system was carried out on the heihe xigangzi substation. The result showed that this digital metering system error was 1.013%, which is consistent with the theoretical value.

Abstract:
The planning of metering network infrastructure based on the concept of the Internet of Things primarily involves the choice of available radio technology. Then, regardless of the type and availability of power sources, energy conservation should be one of the main optimization criteria. For this reason, LPWANs operating in unlicensed ISM bands appear to be a suitable solution in urban environments due to their sub 1 GHz propagation properties. High signal penetration and coverage make them applicable in urban areas with buildings and various obstacles. Therefore, this article presents solutions developed to support the planning process of implementing a LoRaWAN network infrastructure aimed at monitoring and collecting electricity meter data in smart cities. To this end, an algorithm has been proposed to support the selection of the number of LoRaWAN gateways and their deployment, as well as the selection of transmission parameters at the measurement nodes with a particular focus on geographic data from real maps.

Abstract:
Building real Smart Metering and Smart Grid networks is very expensive and time-consuming and also it is impossible to install different technologies in the same environment only for comparison. Therefore, simulation and experimental pilot measurements are an easy, economical, and time-affordable solution for a first comparison and evaluation of different technologies and solutions. The local area networks (LAN) are the core of Smart Metering and Smart Grid networks. The two predominant technologies are mostly sufficient for LAN networks, Power Line Communication (PLC), and radio frequency (RF) solutions. For PLC it is hard to allow prediction of the behaviour. Performance assessment for point-to-point connection is easy, but for complex PLC networks with repeaters it is quite expensive. Therefore, a simulation is an easy, fast, and cheap solution for understanding the grid configuration, influence of particular topological components, and performance possibilities. Simulation results can, thus, provide material for the design of a telecommunication infrastructure for Smart Metering. This paper presents results of such a simulation study. It is based on realistic PLC channel model implementation in Network Simulator 3, our modification and extension of this implementation for our use case scenario. It uses Shannon’s formula to calculate theoretical maximum channel capacity. In particular, it provides channel capacity and achievable distances of broadband PLC (BB-PLC). In this article we also exploit our novel idea of simple performance assessment of broadband PLC communication via simulation. It is supposed to be used to understand, evaluate, and test the grid configuration before deployment.

Full text
Abstract:
Sedimentation is an undesirable phenomenon that complicates the design of microsystems that exploit dense microparticles as delivery tools, especially in biotechnological applications. It often informs the integration of continuous mixing modules, consequently impacting the system footprint, cost, and complexity. The impact of sedimentation is significantly worse in systems designed with the intent of particle metering or binary encapsulation in droplets. Circumventing this problem involves the unsatisfactory adoption of gel microparticles as an alternative. This paper presents two solutions—a hydrodynamic solution that changes the particle sedimentation trajectory relative to a flow-rate dependent resultant force, and induced hindered settling (i-HS), which exploits Richardson–Zaki (RZ) corrections of Stokes’ law. The hydrodynamic solution was validated using a multi-well fluidic multiplexing and particle metering manifold. Computational image analysis of multiplex metering efficiency using this method showed an average reduction in well-to-well variation in particle concentration from 45% (Q = 1 mL/min, n = 32 total wells) to 17% (Q = 10 mL/min, n = 48 total wells). By exploiting a physical property (cloud point) of surfactants in the bead suspension in vials, the i-HS achieved a 58% reduction in the sedimentation rate. This effect results from the surfactant phase change, which increases the turbidity (transient increase in particle concentration), thereby exploiting the RZ theories. Both methods can be used independently or synergistically to eliminate bead settling in microsystems or to minimize particle sedimentation

Abstract:
There is a growing interest for smart metering applications in wireless environment recently. Wireless smart meter devices are easy to use solutions for recording energy consumption and report back the amount to the utility on a daily basis. This kind of usage of smart meter devices can be considered as a special subset of wireless sensor networks (WSN). The communication protocol used in smart meter networks has to be fast, reliable and secure. The challenge in developing such a protocol is the difficulty to debug software on multiple wireless nodes at the same time. This difficulty highlights the importance of the simulation-based approach. The most laborious part of the wireless communication is the routing protocol in the network layer when it comes to implementation. In this paper different wireless communication routing protocols are compared by simulation including naive Flooding, Gradient-Based Routing (GBR) and Directed Diffusion (DD). The simulation results show that GBR and DD have a superior performance over flooding as expected, and that GBR and DD has similar efficiency in a smart metering application. Since GBR is easier to implement it is the recommended solution for routing in a smart metering network.

Abstract:
Using information and communication technologies (ICT) to make the electrical power network intelligent and smarter (smart grid) has been the focal point in transforming electrical power industry. The idea behind smart grid is to transform the Tanzanian power sector into a secure, adaptive, sustainable, and digitally enabled ecosystem that provides reliable and quality energy for all with active participation of stakeholders. Smart metering is a central segment in realizing smart grid. However, a big question is whether Tanzanian power stakeholders are ready for smart metering technology investments for household applications. Operation and maintenance of a smart metering solution is a relatively new business in Tanzania and requires investment in resources and capacity building. A case study was conducted at the utility company in Dar es Salaam offices, to investigate the deployment status and services offered. Fixed tariff rates, high cost, low rates on returns of investment and non-customization of the features, were some of the shortcomings identified by the study in terms of non-deployment in residential homes. Further, the authors, propose development of standardization document for smart metering technologies and the adoption of software based smart meter for residential applications using Internet of Things platform. Its low cost of development and ease installation would be ideal for residential applications.

Abstract:
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is a system that enables the collection and analysis of energy consumption data in real-time. With the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, AMI has evolved into a more sophisticated and efficient solution for managing energy resources. This abstract provides an overview of AMI using IoT, highlighting its key components, benefits, and challenges. AMI using IoT leverages a network of smart meters equipped with IoT sensors to monitor and transmit energy consumption data. These smart meters are capable of measuring and recording energy usage at regular intervals, providing a granular view of consumption patterns. The collected data is then transmitted to a central server or cloudbased platform through wireless communication protocols such as Wi-Fi, cellular networks, or LowPower Wide Area Networks (LPWAN).The integration of IoT in AMI brings numerous advantages. Firstly, it enables real-time monitoring of energy consumption, allowing utilities and consumers to gain insights into usage patterns, identify energy-saving opportunities, and make informed decisions regarding energy management. Secondly, AMI using IoT facilitates remote meter reading, eliminating the need for manual meter reading and reducing operational costs. Additionally, it enables faster detection and resolution of faults or abnormalities, improving overall system reliability and reducing downtime. However, implementing AMI using IoT also presents certain challenges. One significant challenge is the security and privacy of data transmitted over the IoT network. Measures must be in place to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of the data, as well as protect against unauthorized access and cyber threats. Another challenge is the scalability of the system, as large-scale deployments require robust infrastructure and network management capabilities to handle the high volume of data generated by a multitude of connected devices.In conclusion, AMI using IoT offers a promising solution for effective energy management. By leveraging IoT technologies, it enables real-time monitoring, remote meter reading, and improved fault detection. However, addressing security concerns and ensuring scalable infrastructure are critical for the successful implementation and widespread adoption of AMI using IoT in energy management systems.

Abstract:
The 2018/2001/EU renewable energy directive (RED II) underlined the strategic role of energy communities in the EU transition process towards sustainable and renewable energy. In line with the path traced by RED II, this paper proposes a solution that may help local energy communities in increasing self-consumption. The proposed solution is based on the combination of smart metering and smart charging. A set of smart meters returns the profile of each member of the community with a time resolution of 5 s; the aggregator calculates the community profile and regulates the charging of electric vehicles accordingly. An experimental test is performed on a local community composed of four users, where the first is a consumer with a Nissan Leaf, whereas the remaining three users are prosumers with a photovoltaic generator mounted on the roof of their home. The results of the experimental test show the feasibility of the proposed solution and demonstrate its effectiveness in increasing self-consumption. The paper also calculates the subsidy that the community under investigation would receive if the current Italian incentive policies for renewables were extended to local energy communities; this subsidy is discussed in comparison with the subsidies that the three prosumers individually receive thanks to the net metering mechanism. This paper ends with an economic analysis and calculation of savings on bills when the four users create the local energy community and adopt the proposed combination of smart metering and smart charging.

Abstract:
Today, due to the increase in smart grid and DC appliances implement the use of renewable energy, the power consumption of equipment and appliances can be monitored by smart outlet or smart meter. However, if every devices are installed a meter will be very expensive and lack of flexibility. This work proposes a combination of multi-channel power supply and matrix measurement of electrical meter data management system to increase system built facilitate and promote greater consumption analysis flexibility and benefits. The proposed method includes a programmable logic controller (PLC)based Multi-channel power supply switch circuit (MPSC), measurement control circuit and Zigbee intelligent socket (Smart Outlet) for collecting and controlling the power flow with wireless communication. Three types of wireless metering methods are used to compare cost and metering error rate. The experimental results reveal this work can be an efficient and low-cost metering solution.

Abstract:
Energy theft and fault is a significant global issue in the energy sector, which accounts for non-technical loss in power utilities. Specifically, in Nigerian context, energy theft arises from meter tampering to reduce energy consumption readings, unauthorized or illegal connections, and meter swapping. The nexus of Internet of Things and Fuzzy logic learning techniques applied in smart metering system could mitigate this endemic problem. While there are efforts in literature that address this problem. However, there is still need for an optimal and smart metering system with an increased intelligence and accuracy to address energy theft and fault detection problem in distribution network. Hence, this work presents a solution to energy theft and fault detection in the distribution network by designing a smart energy metering system that applies simple fuzzy logic rules to analyze data thereby detecting theft and fault in the system. The system compares the measurements from a pole-based smart meter and consumer unit meter for detection of fault and theft. The smart energy meter is designed with a microcontroller and uses Wi-Fi communication for data transmission from pole-based metering point and consumer unit metering point to the central server for analysis and processing. The result shows that Fuzzy logic is useful in solving energy theft and fault detection problems. The accuracy and precision are 95% and 95% respectively for theft detection as well as 91% and 95% for fault detection.

Abstract:
Precision agriculture aims to increase agricultural productivity while reducing resource use and environmental impact. A critical component of this approach is seed metering—the accurate placement of seeds to optimize crop growth and uniformity. Traditional seed metering methods are often labor-intensive and imprecise, leading to inconsistent seed spacing, resource waste, and potential yield reduction. The Automatic Seed Metering Bot addresses these challenges by providing a fully autonomous solution that integrates advanced sensors, GPS, and real-time data processing to ensure precise seed placement across variable field conditions. This bot is designed to adapt to different terrains, soil types, and planting requirements, optimizing seed distribution to enhance crop uniformity and yield potential. Capable of self-adjustment based on real-time field conditions, it requires minimal human intervention, reducing labor costs and allowing for more efficient large- scale farming operations. By integrating with other precision farming technologies, such as aerial drones and soil analysis systems, the bot enables data-driven decision-making and improves planting accuracy. The projected design helps to improve productivity benefits, the Automatic Seed Metering Bot supports sustainable farming practices by minimizing seed waste and optimizing resource use, thus contributing to both economic and environmental goals in agriculture

Abstract:
The addition of anti-water crystallization fluids (AWCF) in aviation fuels (AF) is a radical and relatively simple method to prevent ice formation in the aircraft fuel systems and aviation engines (AE). The anti-water crystallization fluids use is extremely important for our country. However, failures of fuel systems components due to icing also occur when the anti-water crystallization fluids are added to aviation fuel. The article shows that one of the most significant causes is a decrease in standard concentration of the anti-water crystallization fluids in aviation fuels after refueling due to mixing loaded fuel with the standard-anti-water crystallization fluids content with the remaining fuel in aircraft tanks, both with and without the anti-water crystallization fluids. At the same time, the anti-water crystallization fluids content control in aviation fuels after refueling is not carried out. It is shown that the solution to this problem can be a transition to variable anti-water crystallization fluids metering in aviation fuels, taking into account the remaining fuel in the aircraft tanks and the fuel in the aviation fuel supply technological equipment. Developing metering units with the variable anti-water crystallization fluids supply to aviation fuels is not currently associated with issues. The formula is proposed, and the calculation of the required anti-water crystallization fluids metering is shown to ensure its standard value in aviation fuels after refueling. It is also shown that the required metering varies long-range: from 0.18 to 1.31% vol., and in all the cases, exceeds standard metering of 0,125 ± 0,025% vol. for civil aviation. The improvement of the anti-water crystallization fluids metering procedure in aviation fuel is feasible to ensure the reliability of aircraft fuel systems and aviation engines operation as well as flight safety.

Abstract:
A method for measuring the performance of agricultural injection metering systems was developed and used to assess the characteristics of three commercial system designs. Steady-state characteristics were measured using both colored dyes and salt as tracers. Dynamic response characteristics were determined by measuring salt concentration downstream of the injection point by monitoring electrical conductivity of the spray solution. Salt added to a viscous test liquid changed viscosity slightly only at low shear rates and it is concluded that this liquid is appropriate for use in evaluation tests with injection systems. Results from tests with 2 systems specifically designed for operation with agricultural sprayers gave a linear response with both water and the viscous test liquids and no evidence of dose pulsation in the delivered spray liquid. A system using a single-acting water driven piston had a performance that was dependent upon viscosity and that gave substantial dose pulsation. When injecting on the pressure side of the pump, response times for both increasing and decreasing dose levels were in the order of 3.2 s. When injecting on the input side of the pump, response times were greater and very dependant upon the total flow rate of the delivery system.

Abstract:
In commercial building, there are many shops in different floors. These shops are rented to different people and the electrical energy consumed by each shop has to be read every month. In conventional metering system, the meter reader has to go the metering panels in different floor which is time consuming and there is problem of raising the bill amount from the shop keepers in time and human error in meter reading. This paper presents a possible solution which is named as Smart Centralized Metering System for commercial building. The proposed system collects the data from each meter sends the data via wireless communication to a central server where monitoring and analysis of the data will be easily made. It will poll each and every individual shop automatically regularly in order to get the meter reading of the corresponding shop. If a particular shop did not pay the bill, power supply to the particular shop can be turned off from the server room. A proto type hardware of the scheme is fabricated and tested successfully.

Abstract:
This effort to make the power grid more intelligent is tightly coupled with the deployment of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) as an integral part of the future vision of smart grid. The goal of AMI is to provide necessary information for the consumers and utilities to accurately monitor and manage energy consumption and pricing in real time. Immediate benefits are enhanced transparency and efficiency of energy usage and the improvement of customer services. Although the road map toward successful AMI deployment is clearly defined, many challenges and issues are to be solved regarding the design of AMI. In this paper, a multi-agent AMI based on the fog-computing approach is presented. Architecture follows structural decomposition of AMI functionalities encapsulated in a form of local and area-specific service components that reside at the different tiers of hierarchically organized AMI deployment. Fog computing concepts provide the framework to effectively solve the problems of creating refined and scalable solutions capable of meeting the requirements of the AMI as a part of future smart grid. On the other hand, agent-based design enables concurrent execution of AMI operations across the distributed system architecture, in the same time improving performance of its execution and preserving the scalability of the AMI solution. The real-time performance of the proposed AMI solution, related to the periodic and on-demand acquisition of metering data from the connected electricity meters, was successfully verified during one year of pilot project operation. The detailed analysis of the performance of AMI operation regarding data collection, communication and data availability across the deployed pilot AMI, covering several transformer station areas with diverse grid topologies, is also presented.

Multi-phase flow meters are of huge importance to the offshore oil and gas industry. Unreliable measurements can lead to many disadvantages and even wrong decision-making. It is especially important for mature reservoirs as the gas volume fraction and water cut is increasing during the lifetime of a well. Hence, it is essential to accurately monitor the multi-phase flow of oil, water and gas inside the transportation pipelines. The objective of this review paper is to present the current trends and technologies within multi-phase flow measurements and to introduce the most promising methods based on parameters such as accuracy, footprint, safety, maintenance and calibration. Typical meters, such as tomography, gamma densitometry and virtual flow meters are described and compared based on their performance with respect to multi-phase flow measurements. Both experimental prototypes and commercial solutions are presented and evaluated. For a non-intrusive, non-invasive and inexpensive meter solution, this review paper predicts a progress for virtual flow meters in the near future.

Abstract:
With the improvement of operation monitoring and data acquisition levels of smart meters, mining data associated with smart meters becomes possible. Besides, precisely assessing the operation quality of smart meters plays an important role in purchasing metering equipment and improving the economic benefits of power utilities. First, seven indexes for assessing operation quality of smart meters are defined based on the metering data and the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) clustering algorithm is applied to extract the typical index data from the massive data of smart meters. Then, the combination optimization model of index’s weight is presented with the subject experience of experts and object difference of data considered; and the comprehensive assessment algorithm based on the revised technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) is proposed to evaluate the operation quality of smart meters. Finally, the proposed data-driven assessment algorithm is illustrated by the actual metering data from Zhejiang Ningbo power supply company of China and practical application is briefly introduced. The results show that the proposed algorithm is effective for assessing the operation quality of smart meters and could be helpful for energy measurement and asset management.

Unfortunately, introducing two-way communication poses a security risk to the power grid infrastructure. In this paper the authors consider a Threshold Attendance Protocol (TAP) acting in a reverted security paradigm. Its main idea is to keep the network load at a predictable level at all times. To achieve that, TAP in AMI environment is embedded and the solution using real-life simulation parameters is validated.
