Abstract

Digital technologies, especially information and communication technologies, paved the way for social welfare by providing efficient and effective means for services. In the energy sector, advanced metering infrastructures (AMIs) are essential for providing various services through information measurement. In this article, we focus on the deployment of an AMI in multi-dwelling units where automated meter reading (AMR) infrastructures are installed. In particular, we explore whether the AMR should substitute the AMI with few alterations, while ensuring desirable accuracy. To determine the adequacy of technology, information measurement performance, service performance, and implementation cost are used as the indicators. Through a case study using real data recorded in Korea, we quantitatively estimate that AMR-based information measurement can exhibit adequate performance and performance degradation of less than 1% in a service environment utilizing AMI with a low-cost investment. We also discuss several technologies and implementation issues in the upcycling of AMR for more reliable service. This study provides a guide for when configuring an information measurement system for a new energy service.
