Adopting Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting (RFEH) and Wi-SUN (Wireless Smart Utility Network) technologies in Smart Metering systems across urban areas in India can significantly enhance their scalability and reliability. Wi-SUN is a robust communication protocol for large-scale IoT networks like smart meters. Wi-SUN collects near-real-time data, ensuring utilities can monitor energy usage and demand with high granularity. Anil Rawal, MD and CEO of Intellismart shares insight with EPR Magazine.
How can smart meters optimise energy storage and grid operations for utilities?
Smart meters provide near real-time data about energy consumption, which energy storage systems use to make informed decisions about when to charge or discharge. For instance, if there is excess renewable energy generation (e.g., from solar or wind), the energy storage system can store the excess energy.
