The impact of smart metering on demand response programs
Author(s): Khalid Elshiekh and Sara Elrayah
Abstract: Smart metering technology has become an essential component in modern energy management systems, significantly influencing demand response (DR) programs. This study explores how smart metering facilitates the efficient management of energy resources by enabling real-time data collection, enhancing customer engagement, and optimizing load distribution. We assess the technical, economic, and environmental impacts of integrating smart meters into DR programs, highlight the benefits and challenges associated with their adoption, and discuss the future implications for energy providers and consumers. The findings indicate that smart meters play a pivotal role in increasing the effectiveness of DR programs by providing granular energy usage data, improving grid reliability, and supporting the transition to a more sustainable energy future.
