Abstract
The increasing demand for renewable energy has driven the development of intelligent solar energy systems. This project presents an IoT-Based Smart Solar Energy Monitoring System that enhances the efficiency, reliability, and real-time management of solar power generation. The system integrates Internet of Things (IoT) technology with solar energy systems to provide continuous monitoring and optimization.
The proposed system consists of solar panels, sensors, microcontrollers, and a cloud-based platform. Sensors measure critical parameters such as solar irradiance, temperature, voltage, and current, while a microcontroller processes this data and transmits it to a cloud-based server via Wi-Fi or GSM modules. The collected data is analyzed using algorithms to predict energy generation patterns, detect faults, and improve energy utilization.
Users can access real-time data and analytics through a web dashboard or mobile application, allowing remote monitoring and control. The system also includes automated alerts for maintenance and performance anomalies, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.By providing an efficient, cost-effective, and scalable solution, this IoT-based smart solar energy monitoring system contributes to the advancement of sustainable energy. It empowers users with real-time insights, optimizing solar energy consumption and promoting environmental sustainability.
