Silicon Labs wireless hardware is renowned for its superior RF performance, enabling your smart metering devices with reliable two-way wireless connectivity to support demand response. Enabling Demand Responseĭemand response functionality is critical for utility companies because it enables them to respond to demand changes instantaneously by controlling supply accordingly, which saves energy and costs.

When developing smart electricity meters, take advantage of these design considerations. With Silicon Labs, you get access to the broadest selection of hardware, innovative wireless software, the most robust security, including the world's first SoCs (System on Chips) with the PSA Level 3 certification. Silicon Labs offers industry leading MCUs (microcontroller units), wireless connectivity chipsets, and development tools for device makers. Our Solutions for Smart Electricity Meters The electricity users can enjoy the benefits of transparent consumption monitoring and more accurate billing while the cities are reducing carbon footprint. They can monitor and control meters remotely and serve their customers quickly and cost-efficiently, connecting or disconnecting customers and monitoring consumption. Continuous and timely monitoring enables demand response , where the utility companies can control electricity distribution and energy production equipment to respond to demand in real-time. As a result, smart metering significantly reduces costs and accelerates cash flow in utilities.
Smart utility meters manual#
With smart electricity metering and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), utility companies can eliminate the need for manual meter readings. The global market continues its strong growth as the cities and power industry transition toward more modern, efficient, and green energy production and distribution. Smart electricity metering is the most widely deployed smart city application today.

With wirelessly connected smart meters, utilities and service providers can collect electricity data automatically, and remotely, providing them with accurate consumption information efficiently, without manual work. Smart electricity meters are electronic hardware devices measuring the amount of consumed electricity including the time of day.
