Abstract

The widespread popularity of smart meters has promoted the transition from traditional grid into modern smart grid, which is aimed to meet the rapid-growing demand for higher quality service and take up the emergence of new challenges. How to analyze, transmit and make the most of massive smart meter data to enhance the efficiency and reliability is our priority. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a detailed review to summarize and evaluate the latest advances in smart meter data analysis, privacy preserving and residential energy management. We conclude the analysis of smart meter data, protecting techniques in the process of delivering and end-uses of smart meter data application according to the flowing direction of smart meter data. Compared with other review papers, we analyze the merits and drawbacks in corresponding situations and provide readers a more detailed eyesight to the research status in modern smart grid.
