apply to other things.
I can assure you that the requirements and IT issues surrounding smart
electric meters are far from "trivial."
You talk about "the electric company" being singular and monolithic. In
reality there are many separate parties with interests in obtaining
access to that data and controlling that meter (the home owner, multiple
production/ delivery companies, meter data management company, meter
management company, high voltage distribution company, medium voltage
distribution company, regulators, micro generation .... ) That can add
up to 15 different roles, and many different message types.
