Development and Calibration of an Open Source, Low-Cost Power Smart Meter Prototype for PV Household-Prosumers

Smart meter roll-out in photovoltaic (PV) household-prosumers provides easy access to granular meter measurements, which enables advanced energy services. The design of these services is based on the training and validation of models. However, this requires temporal high-resolution data for generati...
