Abstract
The implementation of smart metering is part of the EU strategy to increase the transparency and accuracy of the data transmitted to the utility sector in the Member States, as well as to increase the energy efficiency of the electricity distribution companies. The factors hampering the introduction of smart meters based on the existing regulatory framework in Bulgaria lagging behind from EU regulatory initiatives have been studied. We have analyzed the benefits of using a DLT solution in the exchange of information among system participants: users; facilities; utility companies and regulators. The action diagram of a DLT solution based on CORDA for the Utilities sector is visualized.
