[Trisquel-users] advanced metering reader software (electricity)

[Andresmp]

Do any of you know of a simple (FLOSS) advanced metering software? I am  
particularly interested on one that can "catch" the wifi signal that is  
already being sent with my electricity consumption (kwh) to a stand alone  
device that sits at home. I would like to pick it up on my laptop. I tried  
searching online and I only found that there seems to be some set of  
international standards [1], a crowd sourcing project that caught my eye [2]  
and a science paper [3]. The project [2] caught my eye because it makes your  
home into a smart home. I was very interested by it because the central  
computer seemed to be gnu/linux. The rest of it is not open source: at the  
most they said that they might publish some API. This lost my interest  
because it seems to need acess to your home router and I felt a bit uneasy on  
this bit. Regards, Andres [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Met
