Integrating Smart Energy Management System with Internet of Things and Cloud Computing for Efficient Demand Side Management in Smart Grids

The increasing price of and demand for energy have prompted several organizations to develop intelligent strategies tracking, control, conservation. Demand side management is a critical strategy averting substantial supply disruptions improving efficiency. A vital part smart system that can aid in cutting expenditures while still satisfying needs; produce customers’ consumption patterns; react energy-saving algorithms directives. Internet Things an emerging technology be employed effectively manage usage industrial, commercial, residential sectors the environment. This paper presents environments integrates Energy Controller IoT middleware module efficient management. Each device connected controller, which inculcation numerous sensors actuators with object, collects data from each through various time-slots are designed optimize air conditioning systems based on ambient temperature conditions operational dynamics buildings then communicate it centralized (cloud server) management, processing, further analysis. Since contribute more than 50% electricity Pakistan, validation proposed system, units been taken as proof concept. presented approach offers advantages over traditional controllers by leveraging real-time monitoring, advanced algorithms, user-friendly interfaces. evaluation process involves comparing before after installation SEMS. tested implemented four buildings. results demonstrate significant savings ranging 15% 49% highlight benefits system. better control systems, cost savings, environmental benefits, longer equipment life. ultimate goal provide practical solution reducing buildings, sustainable use resources goes beyond simpler address specific needs
