Abstract
The importance of renewable energies and energy storage system forming a micro-grid and integrating it to the electrical grid is widely spread. A supervisory system plays a crucial role in controlling, managing, and planning the micro-grid. This paper demonstrates the development of a new custom supervisory system based on Internet of Things (IoT), creating an information sharing environment. The proposed supervisory system is based on open-source tools for a micro-grid, composed of a photovoltaic power plant and a storage system, employing smart devices and making non-smart devices compatible with IoT systems. The new supervisory improves the available system by incorporating new features and devices and increasing the data polling rate when necessary. A comparison between the current supervisory system and the proposed one is performed, showing that the new system is more flexible, easily modified, cost-effective, and more fault-resilient.
