Abstract

Global warming and energy demand are two of the most significant factors that affect the standard of living. The temperature deviations affect energy consumed for heating or cooling a place and the emissions produced by the means used to heat and cool a building affect the climate change. This bidirectional relationship between energy and temperature needs to be examined as the demand for energy is increasing and as a result there will be a supply shortage [1]. In addition, the effects from the temperature increase are getting worse by the year [2]. The visibility provided to the consumers by the information delivered from daily consumption metering can help them to save energy and money. Consumption information can be provided by smart meters as they are easy to install, they send real time energy consumption both to the energy supplier and the consumers [3].
