Smart Metering: Infrastructure, Methodologies, Applications and Challenges combines the fundamentals of smart meters in smart grids with the latest advances and technologies in advanced smart infrastructure. With a strong focus on practical guidance and applications, this book examines the design and implementation of smart meters, as well as cybersecurity and data management challenges. Following an introduction to smart grid architecture, the book details design elements of smart meters to enable them for specific applications such as recording the energy consumption of users, load forecasting, resilience enhancement and energy theft detection.A deep dive into smart meter data analytics is then presented, accompanied by load forecasting methods and their advantages and challenges. Subsequent chapters also discuss outage management, fault identification and other applications of smart meters, including power network connection verifications. This is a comprehensive resource on smart metering and a valuable read to students, researchers and engineers interested in power systems engineering, smart grids, and smart energy technologies.Discusses advanced architecture in the context of establishing smart meters in smart grids for enhanced operation and data utilizationProvides detailed discussions on smart meter data analysisExplores the design of smart meters and possible implementation of AI, ML, and other advanced methodologies to enhance the functions of power systems using smart meter data

This book discusses various challenges and solutions in the fields of operation, control, design, monitoring and protection of microgrids, and facilitates the integration of renewable energy and distribution systems through localization of generation, storage and consumption.It covers five major topics relating to microgrid i.e., operation, control, design, monitoring and protection. The book is primarily intended for electric power and control engineering researchers who are seeking factual information, but also appeals to professionals from other engineering disciplines wanting an overview of the entire field or specific information on one aspect of it. Featuring practical case studies and demonstrating different root causes of large power failures, it helps readers develop new concepts for mitigating blackout issues.This book is a comprehensive reference resource for graduate and postgraduate students, academic researchers, and practicing engineers working in the fields of power system and microgrid.
