Abstract

Solar power plants that utilize solar energy to be converted into electrical energy have several advantages compared to other power plants, namely that they do not produce air pollution, are available continuously and are available everywhere. Coffee is a commodity in the world that is cultivated in more than 50 countries. Two species of coffee trees that are generally known are Robusta Coffee and Arabica Coffee. Processing coffee before consumption goes through a long process, namely from harvesting coffee beans that are ready to harvest. Then proceed with drying before roasting. Coffee roasting machine that uses an AC motor. The motor gets a DC power source from a solar power plant then the inverter changes the DC voltage to AC. This coffee roasting machine is equipped with IoT to control the motor rotation remotely and monitor the temperature. The battery has the function of storing electrical energy produced by solar panels in the form of direct current energy. The energy stored in the battery functions as a backup, which is usually used when the solar panels do not produce electrical energy. The greater the capacity of the battery used, the longer the battery can back up the load used.
