Abstract This paper presents the digitization of small-scale energy monitoring systems based on IoT. The proposed energy monitoring system known as EMOSY eliminates the high-cost energy meter. EMOSY is designed to be portable and practical to use without modification of internal or external connection of appliances. EMOSY is developed by using a voltage detector circuit concept by amplifying the existence of electrostatic. This electrostatic reading sends to the database through Wi-Fi module ESP8266 integrated with Arduino NodeMCU. The web page is designed using Adobe Dreamweaver with HTML and PHP coding. In the proposed system, the user able to monitor the energy usage of each appliance and estimated billing time to time. Based on the result, the energy monitoring system successfully can detect the existence of electrostatic, and the webpage database can display the energy usage extended to the estimated electricity bill. The monitoring system is found to be useful to the residential, commercial, and industrial to monitor energy patterns, which is essential to facilitate energy conservation measures for minimizing energy usage.

Statistics show that energy is one of the highest operating costs in a manufacturing enterprise. So, improving energy efficiency can lead to a significant increase in profits and reduce the impact of the enterprise on the environment. To increase the performance of energy efficiency activities, it is necessary to implement an energy management system. One of the components of this system is energy monitoring, which, in turn, is based on the periodic collection and analysis of data to assess the state of the monitoring objects in terms of energy efficiency. In this paper, the role and place of energy monitoring in the energy management system of an industrial enterprise are noted. The paper proposes the concept of creating energy monitoring system in industrial companies, which is based on the combination of a monitoring system based on specific energy consumption, and usage of group energy characteristics of production facilities. Implementing such energy monitoring systems will allow to conduct operational control of energy efficiency of production facilities by creating individual systems for monitoring energy efficiency, as well as successfully carry out such monitoring at the enterprise and its subdivisions over longer periods of time using specific energy consumption indicators. It also provides general guidelines for conducting energy monitoring. These guidelines were formed based on the results of studying various methods and scientific publications in the field of energy monitoring, as well as on the basis of practical experience in the development and implementation of energy management systems. Particular attention is paid to the issues of processing and analysis of information about the objects of energy monitoring of industrial enterprises. The practical application of the concept of creating energy monitoring systems envisages gradual improvement of the existing monitoring system based on the specific energy consumption, which will be further completely replaced with individual energy efficiency monitoring systems.

Electricity bill is one of the major operating expenses in most of the commercial buildings and industrial plants. Thus, the buildings’ energy management system is an essential element that should be utilized to optimize the energy usage and hence, contributes to carbon footprint reduction. To achieve this, one needs to first understand how the energy is being used in the buildings before any saving measures can be identified and proposed. Therefore, this paper presents the development of an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled device that can communicate with different digital energy meters through modbus protocol. The prototype has been successfully installed in three locations in the main campus of Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM). The proposed solution enables the campus-wide energy usage to be monitored and stored efficiently and economically as opposed to the capital-intensive SCADA system.

The use of smart energy monitoring systems in buildings offers significant potential for energy saving. The introduction of a new kind of energy monitoring system is essential in the consumer-side in order to meet the demands of energy conservation. In this paper, four energy monitoring systems based on advanced wireless technology are proposed. The design and implementation of the smart real-time energy monitoring systems is analyzed with respect to their performance. The proposed systems utilize advanced wireless technologies like the Zigbee module, Internet of Things (IoT), Android Mobile Apps, and cloud computing for interfacing the information between the meters and the consumer end. A digital power meter is installed in the main panel, interfaced with a communication gateway and parameters such as voltage, current, power, power factor, and the harmonics of household appliances are measured in real-time. These systems provide power consumption details to the consumer and allow interacting with them by giving instant data such as live power tracking, identification of abnormal patterns of energy usage, energy bill estimation, and energy usage information.

Energy monitoring systems are being reported on more and more as consumers wish to determine the amount of energy produced and used by various renewable energy systems. Added to this is improving the overall systems’ efficiency and identifying any potential concerns. The purpose of the paper is to show the importance of correctly calibrating such energy monitoring systems on a regular basis, in order to validate any future measurements as being reliable. In this study, three 10 W PV modules are used with their own respective LED loads to extract the maximum possible amount of electrical energy during the day. No storage systems are used due to their limited life-cycle and variability. An Arduino microcontroller is used as the data logging interface between the PV systems and a PC running Lab VIEW software, which acts as the visual interface and recording system. Calibration is done in Lab VIEW to account for system losses. Results indicate that three identical PV systems can be calibrated to produce the same results, with variability of less than 1%. Higher variabilities point to inconsistencies in the PV modules, even if they originate from the same manufacturer. A key recommendation is to perform an annual calibration of the monitoring system, which primarily accounts for PV module degradation.

Now a days, every month a person from electricity board visits each and every consumers energy meter for tariff calculation and billing. The main drawback of this system is that person has to go area by area and he has to read the meter of every house and handover the bills. Many times errors like extra bill amount or notification from electric board even though the bills are paid are common errors. To overcome this drawback our proposed project will eliminate the third party between the consumer and service provider, even the errors will be overcome. In this paper, energy meters which are already installed at our houses are not replaced, but a small modification on the already installed meters can change the existing meters into smart meters. The use of Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) module provides a feature of notification through Short Message Service (SMS). One can easily access the meter working through web page that we designed. Current reading with cost can be seen on web page. Automatic ON & OFF of meter is possible. Threshold value setting and sending of notification is the additional task that we are performing. Monitoring and keeping tracking of your electricity consumption for verification is a tedious task today since you need to go to meter reading room and take down readings. Well it is important to know if you are charged accordingly so the need is quite certain. Well we automate the system by allowing users to monitor energy meter readings over the internet. Our proposed system uses energy meter with microcontroller system to monitor energy usage using a meter. The meter is used to monitor units consumed and transmit the units as well as cost charged over the internet using wifi connection. This allows user to easily check the energy usage along with the cost charged online using a simple web application. Thus the energy meter monitoring system allows user to effectively monitor electricity meter readings and check the billing online with ease. It has been further extended by adding an additional feature of tripping the supply to a particular customer in case bill is not paid. The tariff changes can also be easily updated by the EB when needed.

Road surfaces should be maintained in excellent condition to ensure the safety of motorists. To this end, there exist various road-surface monitoring systems, each of which is known to have specific advantages and disadvantages. In this study, a smartphone-based dual-acquisition method system capable of acquiring images of road-surface anomalies and measuring the acceleration of the vehicle upon their detection was developed to explore the complementarity benefits of the two different methods. A road test was conducted in which 1896 road-surface images and corresponding three-axis acceleration data were acquired. All images were classified based on the presence and type of anomalies, and histograms of the maximum variations in the acceleration in the gravitational direction were comparatively analyzed. When the types of anomalies were not considered, it was difficult to identify their effects using the histograms. The differences among histograms became evident upon consideration of whether the vehicle wheels passed over the anomalies, and when excluding longitudinal anomalies that caused minor changes in acceleration. Although the image-based monitoring system used in this research provided poor performance on its own, the severity of road-surface anomalies was accurately inferred using the specific range of the maximum variation of acceleration in the gravitational direction.
