Energy Monitoring System Based on Internet of Things Toward Smart Campus in Institut Teknologi Sumatera

Abstract

The critical subject to provide energy consumption graphs from a building is an energy monitoring system. With the rapid Internet of Things (IoT) development, it is possible to develop a better energy monitoring system based on IoT. This system presents the real-time energy consumption data. Hence, this paper proposes the development of an energy monitoring system prototype based on IoT for buildings in Institut Teknologi Sumatera campus area. The current and voltage are measured in real-time for each wiring phase on the building electrical panel. The data is collected in the cloud server and displayed in a web-based system using custom web panel. Finally, the prototype is implemented in the building during 24/7 for one week achieving about 97% of the accuracy.
