Smart Metering needs Smart Communication
This workshop will be organised in collaboration with Smart Grids Flanders (www.smartgridsflanders.be), the member organisation that promotes the roll out of smart energy grids, in Flanders and internationally.
The programma includes both oral presentations and demos, including:
- existing and emerging wireless/PLC/cable communication standards for smart metering
- software-defined multi-standard multi-technology communication technology
- regulation for smart metering in a European context
- use cases of smart metering in electrcity, water and gas distribution networks
- smart metering and monitoring in the grid infrastructure
- smart metering for residential applications
- proof-of-concepts and pilot studies for smart metering
