Abstract

This project presents the design and implementation of a smart home energy management system using internet of things (IoT) technology to optimize household energy consumption. The system integrates various sensors, including passive infrared (PIR), light dependent resistor (LDR), and DHT11, to collect real-time environmental data, which is processed by a NodeMCU microcontroller. The microcontroller controls home appliances using relays, while the Blynk mobile app and Streamlit web platform provide users with remote monitoring and control capabilities. Despite successfully optimizing energy usage, the system faces limitations such as high sensor sensitivity and potential hazards during high-load power demonstrations. To address these issues, future work proposes integrating additional sensors for improved accuracy and incorporating renewable energy sources for increased sustainability. This project aims to enhance energy efficiency, provide users with greater control over their energy consumption, and contribute to smart home automation by utilizing real-time data, IoT integration, and user-friendly interfaces.
