Abstract
This chapter describes different types of applications related to smart metering in smart grid. The interference of smart meters in distributed generation is illustrated and discussed. The voltage monitor and control with the aid of smart meters and its benefits are also discussed. HVAC system performance enhancement with smart metering is highlighted. Residential load controlling through smart meters, the integration of smart appliance controllers, demand side primary frequency control, optimal energy management under time varying tariff structures, and their impacts on energy conservation and cost reduction are summarized with modern world examples. Different types of tariff schemes commonly used with smart metering such as real time pricing, time of use pricing, critical pricing, and day ahead pricing and their impact on demand management are compared and discussed.
