Web Based Raspberry Monitoring System Solar Energy Power Plant

Abstract

In conducting the monitoring of current and voltage change towards temperature change and humidity at the output of Solar Power Plant (SPP), the researcher used to conduct measurement manually which was by using multi meter until the measurement obtained depends on the researcher/the operator itself to do the measurement. In this research, the researcher looked for the solution to replace the human roles as the operator of the measurement tool with raspberry pi-based monitoring system and RTC DS3231 to monitor the current, the voltage, the temperature, and the humidity on the surface of PTS to know the current that flows and the change of voltage towards the temperature and the humidity that occur in 24 hours. Based on the result of the research conducted, raspberry pi-based SPP monitoring system and RTC DS3231 could record the current, the voltage, the temperature, and the humidity in real time towards the performance result of SPP into CSV file with recording time once in 10 seconds into Micro SD and the result of that measurement can be accessed through website/internet where Raspberry Pi is functioned as the web server connected to the campus network system.
