Exploration of power consumption monitoring based on Internet of things

Abstract

SummaryTo solve the problem that the general power consumption monitoring system only realizes the total amount statistics of energy consumption information, but there is no statistical analysis of energy consumption in items and classification as well as energy saving control, a solution scheme to the power consumption monitoring and energy saving management system based on the Internet of things technology was proposed. Based on the research on the Internet of things architecture and combined with the actual functional requirements of the project, the four‐level architecture of the Internet of things was designed. The database technology was used to achieve an expert system for enterprise energy saving control based on relational model. Finally, according to the actual project, the engineering application of the system was introduced. The research showed that the system proposed could effectively monitor the power consumption of enterprises and analyze and manage energy consumption. To sum up, the power consumption can be well monitored by applying Internet of things.
