The improvement of energy effectiveness should involve the whole chain of process participants, starting from energy production, transmission and distribution to final consumers. Gradual increase in production efficiency and the reduction of transmission losses have not such a significant impact on the improvement of effectiveness as the optimization of power consumption by consumers. Thus, consumers must be able to manage and control their energy consumption in a conscious way.

At present, measurement equipment which forms a point of contact between the energy supplier and energy consumers is used only to calculate energy consumption costs. Smart Metering consists in providing such tools that will allow for two-way communication between the consumer and the supplier and will enable consumers to control/manage their energy consumption.

Such a tool is T550 Smart Meter, which provides the most accurate measurements and a direct access to readings directly via internet browser on the GlobTree platform.
