1. Application Scenario of Remote Meter Reading System - Internet Users (Energy Participants)
2. Pain points of Internet users in the remote meter reading system
2.1 The price of the data system is high
A set of systems requires preliminary survey, drawing, proposal, quotation, construction investment in servers, network cabling, switches, gateways, manual construction and debugging, and the additional investment needs at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, which is expensive.
2.2 Need for Diversified Data Services
Although the budget is small, as a complete user environment, what you want is not just a single industry subsystem application. Things such as prepayment, safe electricity use, centralized power reading, and energy management all need to be configured.
At the same time, these data services do not want to switch between multiple apps.
2.3 Debugging is too specialized
Depending on the actual configuration, our professionals are required to go to the site to debug the gateway and hardware, and to configure and install the system. While increasing the cost, we cannot get real-time data services, and our support is also required for later operation and maintenance.
2.4 System hardware selection is too professional
Because they are non-professionals, facing a variety of power sensors and hardware, there is no supporting data application package, and they don’t know how to choose the model for their own pain points and how to obtain corresponding industry data services.
2.5 Inconvenient service payment
1. As an individual user or a small unit, lack of credit qualification, the current IoT card control is strict, and it is difficult to purchase an IoT traffic card from an operator.
2. For traditional data hosting services, the contract is signed once a year or three years. When it expires, it needs to be reminded manually, and the contract signing process is repeated. Online payment and self-service cannot be done, resulting in a waste of manpower for customers and our company.
3. Application Scenario - Smart City
3. Pain points of smart city in remote meter reading system
4. Remote meter reading system solution
1. Reference standard
2. Network structure
The Acrel-EIoT energy IoT cloud platform adopts a layered distributed structure, which is mainly composed of three parts: the perception layer (terminal collection device), the network layer (communication management terminal) and the platform layer (energy IoT cloud platform).
● Perception layer: various sensors connected to the network, including multi-function meters, prepaid electricity meters, multi-circuit meters, Internet of Things electricity meters, Internet of Things water meters, battery car charging piles, car charging piles, street light controllers, etc.
● Network layer: intelligent gateway, which collects data at the perception layer, performs protocol conversion and storage, and then uploads the data to the energy IoT cloud platform.
● Platform layer: including application server and data server, which can implement applications on PC or mobile.
3. Platform structure
