In the context of sustainable development, one of the major challenges faced by industries is the less resourceful use of their energy generation and consumption. According to a report by Statista, the industrial sector in India accounted for the highest share of energy consumption almost 42.7% in the fiscal year 2020.
Energy monitoring systems are one of the most efficient means of reducing the energy expenditures of businesses. Customers, businesses, and even governments pay special attention to IoT applications in the energy sector. The powerful technology tracks the use of energy for each region throughout the plant’s 24 hours. The demand for real-time energy monitoring systems is enormous throughout the world. Monitoring systems are excellent tools for helping the industry understand the day-to-day energy patterns, which are essential for planning energy conservation measures.
Electric meters are the devices that monitor how much electric energy is consumed by a building, a tenant space, or electrically powered equipment. The energy Monitoring System utilizes energy meters and data loggers.
IoT-based energy monitoring system requires sensors, routers, microcontrollers, and other potential devices to control the automation within the firm. Our current work discusses how IoT-based real-time energy monitoring systems can be used to control and monitor switchgear. In order to monitor the energy consumption of industries, the Raspberry Pi has been selected due to its low cost and reliability. The cloud-based servers readily check your power consumption and faults in real-time, if any intervention to the system occurs the authorized person will be notified via mails and notification. In this way, users have ease of access over the firm. The Internet of Things offers real-time alerts, energy demand and consumption predictions, and ways to minimize energy consumption.
In the IoT-based Energy Monitoring System (EMS), energy consumption information is collected and analyzed to present meaningful and actionable insights, i.e., energy-saving opportunities (ECOs).
Home energy management systems (HMS) make it possible to determine what level of renewable energy will produce the most energy in a home without sacrificing consumers’ comfort. The HMS uses a variety of criteria, including weather conditions, load profiles, and customer comfort. By using this system, hotels, office buildings, vacation rentals and holiday rentals are able to optimize their energy consumption.
Achievable reduction in electricity bills by 25% while using IoT-based energy monitoring systems.
Money can be saved by conserving energy. It’s not a new fact. The new fact in this era is the Internet of Things. To maximize energy efficiency, experts recommend real-time monitoring with IoT-based systems.
With our services, you can remotely monitor and control office and industrial energy consumption, anytime, anywhere, making energy saving easier. The system we developed has helped drive down people’s electricity bills by as much as 25% by increasing their awareness. We provide IoT technology, as well as people expertise, which results in lowering costs and improving efficiencies, as well as reducing environmental impacts.
- Analytics of the energy usage 24×7 via an app.
- Any machine can be turned on/off remotely.
- Alerts for erratic behaviour before it becomes a problem.
- Identifying and eliminating energy waste.
- Monitoring fuel levels can help control diesel theft.
An objective of the smart factory is to provide an energy audit in real-time which conventional energy monitoring systems cannot. With the IoT, we can monitor energy in particular, which can solve many of the issues hindering plant operators from being able to manage energy more efficiently. In addition to saving money, that paves the way for Industry 4.0. If you run a factory and want to save money by cutting energy costs, IoT is an option worth exploring.
Optimal benefits of IoT being in energy monitoring solutions
Energy efficiency can be improved by leveraging the Internet of Things throughout every stage of production. Electricity consumption could be reduced by shutting down/reducing production and/or equipment used during peak hours. Lighting and air conditioning will be adjusted according to operational needs and/or weather conditions and/or the time of day.
The cyber-connected IoT energy management systems enable smarter grids, a new generation of energy savings, enhanced security, and greater efficiency in the electric power supply chain.
Let’s examine the link between the Internet of Things and energy efficiency, as well as some of the key benefits of utilizing the Internet of Things in the energy monitoring system.
- IoT-based smart energy management.
- Reducing the amount of energy spent.
- To minimize carbon emissions.
- Observe regulations better.
- Eco-friendliness into the system. Incorporates green energy.
