Energy management and control system with mobile application interface
Abstract
Existing energy management systems places less emphasis on management of electrical energy at the consumer level while also requiring a standby operator to monitor the system. This paper presents the design, simulation and development of an energy management and control system with mobile application interface for a federated control. The embedded system context is used in managing and controlling the consumption of energy in both residential and non-residential houses. The characteristics components include a local embedded system, and a mobile application, from which the user can set the energy budget either in Kilowatt-Hour. The local embedded system evaluates the data received from the user, to obtain a threshold value. This value is used to monitor and reduces indiscriminate use of energy by detecting human absence, and taking out supply in each room selectively depending on a set priorities. The system has features that allow for automatic change-over performance. This is based on user-set priorities, log energy consumption data, and communicates with the mobile application.Citation
