Design and Implementation of IoT based PV Integrated Power Monitoring System

Abstract

Abstract The awareness of usage of power and effective utilization of power is based on intelligent decision, which can help the user as well as supplier. In this paper the design and implementation of IOT based PV integrated system is presented. A hardware prototype is developed with PV module connected to boost converter, Arduino Uno controller, ESP 8266 Wi-Fi module, and Thing speak to monitor a real-time power. The Arduino Uno serves as the central controller, gathering data from smart power meters and PV modules for solar energy generation. The collected data is wirelessly delivered to the ThingSpeak, which provides cloud-based storage, data analysis, and visualization. With these users may remotely monitor usage of power, track solar energy generation, and get notifications for energy utilization.
