Smart Home Energy Management System based on the Internet of Things (IoT)

The global increasing demand for energy has brought attention to the need efficiency. Markedly noticeable in developing areas, challenges can be at-tributed losses distribution and transmission sys-tems, insufficient demand-side management. Demand-oriented systems have been widely proposed as feasible solutions. Smart Home Energy Management Systems include smart Internet of Things (IoT)-capable devices an ecosystem programmed achieve However, these apply only already-smart are not appropriate many locales where a majority appliances yet IoT-capable. In this paper, we establish pay non-smart appliances, propose solution incorporating such into energy-efficient IoT space. As solution, Homergy, IoT-based Solution that is useful any market –advanced developing. Homergy consists Box (which device with connectivity, in-built microcontroller opto-coupled relays), NoSQL cloud-based database streaming capabilities, secure cross-platform mobile app (Homergy Mobile App). To validate illustrate effectiveness system was deployed tested 3 different consumer scenarios: low-consuming house, single-user office high-consuming house. results indicated produced weekly savings 0.5 kWh 0.35 office, 13-kWh improvement over existing smart-devices-only
