Smart Metering

Smart Metering

INTRODUCTION

A clever meter is an electronic device that information consumption of power, gasoline or water and communicates that records for tracking and billing. Smart meters ship meter readings to the software employer robotically. They also include in-home presentations, which give users actual-time comments on their power or water usage besides what it is estimated.

The EU Directives about common rules for the internal marketplace for strength and gas and the EU Directive on electricity performance require the Member States to make certain the implementation of 'shrewd metering structures' that shall assist the lively participation of clients within the electricity marketplace. The European Command and EFTA mandated CEN, CENELEC and ETSI (Mandate M/441) in 2009 to expand an open structure for utility meters involving conversation protocols enabling interoperability (smart metering).

Privacy and Security approach – an element I

The report describes an approach to define privateness and protection requirements for Smart Metering and the reputation of labour done by way of CEN, CENELEC and ETSI on the incorporation of protection mechanisms to the requirements

Privacy and Security method – part II

The document describes a repository of necessities applicable in special Member States and compares tactics on security certification schemes for Smart Metering.

Privacy and Security approach – part III

The 1/3 file accommodates a description of a repository of security threats, pointers regarding security certification and a replace of the repute of labour achieved by CEN, CENELEC and ETSI.

Privacy and Security technique – component IV

CG-SM advanced a Smart Meter Protection Shape. This Protection Profile resolve is transferred to CEN/CLC JTC thirteen with the settlement that, if an upgrade is achieved, then CEN/CLC JTC thirteen will cooperate with TC CYBER, the usage of the mode four cooperation procedure, to problematic such update.

The institution (now referred to as the CEN/CENELEC/ETSI CG on Smart Meters (CG-SM)) maintains to give entry to the development and protection of latest and present standards for strengthening metering infrastructures in the guide of the European roll-out of clever meters.

OUR ROLE & ACTIVITIES

CG-SM lead and other ETSI Groups worried in Keen Metering

In the beginning, (TC SmartM2M) ETSI Smart Machine-to-Machine communications Technical Committee has been the lead (TB) Technical Body for the coordination of ETSI's responses to the EC standardization request on Smart Metering (M/441). This lead position has been exceeded over to Technical Committee for Access, Terminals, Transmission and Multiplexing (ATTM) this is now the principle ETSI access point of ETSI participation in CEN/CENELEC/ETSI Smart Metering Coordination Group (CG-SM) with different ETSI TBs that indicated their hobby to participate in

The Co-ordination Collection on Keen Meters (CG-SM) works carefully with Smart Energy Grids Coordination Group - CG-SEG.

Smart Metering and SAREF

Our Smart Machine-to-Machine infrastructures Technical Committee (TC SmartM2M) actively helps the oneM2M international initiative, mainly with regards to European Commission (EC) pushed sports, bridging the EC’s desires inside the M2M/IoT area and the technical paintings in oneM2M and different ETSI activities.

TC SmartM2M attention is on a utility-unbiased ‘horizontal’ service platform with a structure able to assist a very wide range of offerings along with Smart Metering, Smart Grids, eHealth, Smart Cities, patron packages, vehicle automation and Smart Applications (SAREF).

Initially, Smart Appliances had been special on request of EC DG Connect. The Smart Appliances specs have been based totally at the oneM2M communication framework (TS 103 267) complemented with Smart Appliance REFerence (this is now Smart Applications REFerence, SAREF V3 TS 103 264) ontology. SAREF work has donated to the foundations of the bottom ontology of oneM2M Release 2.

TC SmartM2M advanced "SAREF ontology and oneM2M Mapping standards" and Smart Appliance testing standards. For SAREF extension investigation in the energy area (TS 103 410-1), direct inputs from EEBus and Energy@home had been blanketed in TC SmartM2M tendencies wherein Energy, Environment and Building sectors had been a part of the primary SAREF normative work. Then more SAREF extensions have been developed for Smart City, Industry and Manufacturing, Smart Agri-Food, Automotive, eHealth and Ageing-Well Wearables and Smart Water. SAREF for Smart Lift is under creation.
