The invention concerns a method of remote metering of energy consumed and/or inputted by a plurality of energy consuming and/or inputting units () of a power grid () as well as a device for remote metering. Each unit () comprises at least one meter () and/or a meter box () connected with one or more meters () and the meter boxes () and/or the meters () are connected with at least one backend platform () via a communication network. At least two of the group of meter boxes (), meters () and backend platforms () communicate with each other by means of a generic bi-directional resource management protocol on top of an IP protocol stack via the communication network and thereby encode and decode data transferred via the resource management protocol according to a predefined extensible specification comprising a functional group for meter information and control.
