Sustainable Grids: Smart Meter Solutions for Efficient Energy Measurement

Abstract

In this study, an energy meter simulation is designed with MATLAB/Simulink and active-reactive power, power factor and energy consumption measurements are realized. The energy meter is crucial for producers and consumers to precisely measure the quantity of electrical energy produced or consumed. This paper aims to establish a three-phase system that simulates the energy meter and assesses its efficiency. The energy consumed under different loads has been measured to accomplish this goal. The study summarizes the simulation findings, encompassing tabular and graphical representations. Hence, the dependability and precision of the simulated energy meter model should be observed.
