IoT Technology Monitoring, Controlling and Data Logging for ATS on Grid Connected Solar-Wind Hybrid System

Abstract

Global warming and climate change have been world issue in decades, renewable and green energy technology came as the solutions to overcome it. Renewable energy surely gives many benefits, but one of the disadvantages is harvesting these energy are so depending on climate, weather, seasons and time, therefore hybrid system is one of the solutions of combining these energy to a single system. ATS-Automatic Transfer Switch enclosure can be applied for hybrid photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbine, placing grid ac power and generator set as backup or emergency purposes only. The priority is to use renewable energy as the main power source. Automatic sequential can be programmed into microcontroller for supervision, monitoring and data logging of ATS system by using IoT (Internet Of Things) Technology through GPRS GSM internet gateway. These operations can be performed both locally and remotely using IoT technology for historical analysis of data stored in cloud server.
