Portal Based Smart Billing System for Energy Meter

Abstract

: The aim of this paper is to develop a system that will reduce the power loss due to power thefts and the hassle of paying the electricity bill. Consumption of energy is increasing due to multiple factors and to improve the energy efficiency, consumers need to be more aware of their energy consumption. Recently, utilities have started developing new electric energy meters which are known as smart meters. Smart meters will enable two-way and real-time communication between the consumers and the provider. The meter that is developed in this paper will compute the energy and transfer the details to the energy provider as well as notify the user via SMS. The traditional system will be replaced with the proposed system, and it enables multiple new features which will be beneficial for both energy provider and user.
