Introduction

Smart metering is arguably the most important development in the energy and utilities sector today. Utilities will be replacing their existing ""Dumb"" meters with ""Smart"" meters over the next decade. This technology allows consumers to reduce energy consumption, for countries to integrate alternative technologies into their energy systems, and to make energy grids more robust and cost-effective.
