On Privacy-Preserving Protocols for Smart Metering Systems

Abstract

This chapter contextualizes the role of smart meters in smart grid initiatives around the world to show that the smart grid concept goes beyond energy supplier modernization. In addition, this chapter presents the security model and the privacy model for Privacy-Preserving Protocols (PPPs). Security is ensured by means of cryptography, and privacy is protected by aggregation of encrypted measurements.
