Abstract:
The article presents on-going work on a system, called OneMeter 2.0, that uses energy-efficient beacons with optical sensors to create an advanced metering infrastructure. The system allows the use of the current, non-smart electricity meters with IEC 65056-21 optical ports to create an intelligent metering system. The core components of the system are described, such as a beacon with an optical sensor, a mobile application, and a data platform. The status of the project is presented, including the number of test installations and initial assessment of the beacon’s energy efficiency. Sample visualizations originating from the data analytics platform are shown and explained.
