Title
Meeting the Challenges of Smart Grid Charging and Billing
Description
Utility companies today rely on legacy systems that were designed to handle simple tariff schemes and batch processing of usage data based on quarterly or monthly billing cycles, and these systems were not expected to accommodate the large amounts of data produced by smart meters at much more frequent rates, according to this report from Research and Markets. Nor were they designed to handle new challenges such as consumer energy microgeneration. To accommodate these smart grid service innovations, utilities will need new systems functionality to process high volumes of smart meter data in near real time, handle a wide variety of usage-, time- and event-based tariffs, and enable flexible new service creation, discounting and promotions.

Smart Grid: The Tuesday Topic - Smart Grid News - Grid Modernization and the Smart Grid

 THE TUESDAY TOPIC

If you could design your own smart grid demo, what would it look like?

Three new demonstration projects caught our attention - a smart grid effort in Albuquerque's business district, a rapid recovery transformer study in Texas and a trial involving low voltage current sensor technologies in the UK. They also got us to thinking: At this stage in the smart grid build out, if you could design a demonstration project, what would it entail? That's our latest Tuesday Topic; click for the details.
