Abstract

Smart meters have the potential to transform consumers’ relationship with energy bringing considerable benefits and also for energy industry. A smart metering solution generally delivers a range of applications using an infrastructure comprising networked meters, communication networks, and data collection and management systems. The program of Advanced Metering Infrastructure System Architecture Based Demand Response (AMIDR): Demand response incentive program submitted to the electricity company (EC) is a response to a voluntary to motivate participants to reduce the load at peak periods. The program is incentive rates for the customers, which they get in return if they reduce the power demand during the system peak period. The electricity company (EC) will pay for the customers an incentive which depends on the level of reduction in demand power each month during the peak periods. One of the main objectives of the program (AMIDR) is to raise the efficiency of energy demand and further secure the electrical grid.
