An Energy Efficient Advanced Metering infrastructure (EEAMI) is proposed for meter data collection and energy management. The best solution for collecting data from electronic/digital energy meters, based on displacement of public, tends to be replaced by modern solutions: Automated Meter Reading (AMR). AMR means to automatic collection of data from meters and send them to a central station. An Energy efficient Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is an AMR infrastructure with bidirectional meters. These meters are called smart meters they are connected to the gateway through power lines and gateway communicates to the central station which can be a computer. The central station communicates through GSM.
