Prototipe Sistem Pompa Air Tenaga Surya dengan Monitoring Tegangan Berbasis Internet of Things (IoT)

Abstract

Several types of alternative energy are geothermal, biogas, wind energy, micro hydro and solar energy. Among these alternative energies, solar energy is the most potential energy to be utilized in Indonesia. A solar energy water pump system with a battery is a water pump that utilizes solar energy into electrical energy that is stored in batteries. The energy in the solar panels is stored in the battery as a source of electrical energy to pump water through the solar charge controller. In this study, monitoring the pump battery voltage remotely, monitoring using the Internet of Things (IoT) method by displaying it on the thingspeak website. The solar panel has a power of 10 Watts. Testing on the whole tool using panels and without using panels there are differences from these experiments. With a time of 10 minutes the initial voltage of the experiment using the panel is 13.24V and the final voltage is 11.90V, consuming 1.34V. Experiments without using a panel with a starting voltage of 12.09V and a final voltage of 10.48V, consuming 1.61V. In both experiments there is a difference of 0.27V, in the test using the panel charging occurs, so that it takes longer to reduce the power to the battery.
