What Role Can a Smart Power Meter System Play?
With the advancement of the times, IoT technology has made rapid progress. In the field of smart meters, the application of Internet of Things technology has become particularly important. In the era of the Internet of Things, the role of smart meters is no longer comparable to that of traditional meters. Today's smart meters have more intelligent functions. In addition to the basic function of traditional electricity meters to calculate electricity, the remote meter reading system has also begun to develop towards data communication, anti-theft, and multi-rate calculation, to adapt the inevitable trend of development of new energy.
It can be said that the popularity of smart meters has been very extensive, and many smart meters can be seen in both rural areas and urban areas. In terms of power management, the traditional era of relying on manual meter reading to calculate electricity bills has passed and replaced by smart meters that use IC cards for billing.
In the era of the Internet of Things, more smart meters that rely on remote control of electricity have also spawned too many intelligent applications. Specific heat can be used in schools, office buildings, large shopping malls, communities and other places for power collection and pre-sale power management. The remote smart meter is connected to the Internet through the Internet of Things technology to support remote recharge, which also eliminates the role of the IC card as a charging medium. In this way, users can also not need to go to the power department to buy electricity, and only need to recharge by mobile payment methods such as APP, WeChat, Alipay, etc. in the mobile device.
