The invention provides an anonymous method and
system for a smart electric meter, and the method comprises the steps: building a
key generation center, and enabling the smart electric meter and an aggregator to carry out the registration of the
key generation center when the smart electric meter and the aggregator join a
smart power grid for the first time; the intelligent electric meter encrypts an identity
label and a
timestamp of the intelligent electric meter by using an intelligent electric meter public key, generates an
authentication request message according to the encrypted identity
label and
timestamp of the intelligent electric meter, and sends the
authentication request message to the aggregator; the aggregator verifies the
authentication request message after receiving the authentication request message, and generates an authentication response message and sends the authentication response message to the intelligent electric meter under the condition that the
verification result is successful; and after receiving the authentication response message, the intelligent electric meter verifies the authentication response message, and under the condition that the
verification result is successful, the two parties establish a shared
session key to complete the authentication process. According to the method, the problems of low calculation efficiency, insufficient
privacy protection, complex authentication process and the like in the prior art are effectively solved.
