Home Automation, Smart Metering, reduction of energy consumption for climate preservation – those buzz words are flooding the daily press.The European Directive 2006/32/EC (Energy-Use Efficiency and Energy Services) commits its members to reduce their energy consumption about nine percent from 1996 to 2015, and supports smart metering and the need of new developments for encouraging energy efficiency and CO² reduction in households and commercial buildings. The European countries have started different projects to achieve this goal. Also outside Europe, smart metering gains interest, for energy savings and better distribution network control.
