Abstract
Objectives: To design a solar based power supply unit that can replace normal power supply in Internet of Things (IoT) devices specifically computers without compromising the efficiency of the devices. It also helps to minimize the ratio of Co2 emission of digital devices which is a big threat now days for environment. Statistical Analysis: Basically, a circuit of DC power supply unit is design for desktop computers. These computers can work on 12 volts DC power supply in green computing environment. Moreover, 5 and 3 volts are generated for initial power and internal components of the computer. Moreover, the statistical analysis is carried out on the bases of energy consumption of the user in Pakistan. Findings: The solar power can save our energy cost up to 208 volts because normal power supply works on 220 volts and new designed power supply can work on 12 volts which are too less than 220. This research work provides a potential technique for green IoT environment. Application: the proposed DC power supply unit will be very helpful to run the IoT components directly on solar systems. Moreover, because of minimum power consumption of IoT it also reduces the carbon emissions that would be good for environment. Keywords: DC Power Supply Unit, Energy Consumption, Green Computing, Internet of Things (IoT), Solar Based Power Supply
Highlights
The internet globally connects the world as a small town
Due to increasing demand of Internet of Things (IoT), the amount of electricity consumed by IoT devices is goes up
Green computing or greening IoT electronic devices comes with energy star label, which means the devices are approved from Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to consume low power on the basis of ratings
Summary
The internet globally connects the world as a small town. There are various devices of Internet of Things (IoT) which help to connect things to each other such as sensors, RFID, cars, computer, mobile devices and home appliances. The IoT utilized numerous devices for their functionality but it demands big energy for its various functions. Companies are focusing for power and energy saving techniques and infrastructure They believe in using green devices for better environment and give preference at it higher level[2]. Because of eco friendly properties, most of the IoT vendors are investing in the development of energy efficient devices which lead them to beat the market via increase in demand so as a cost. It reduces the usage of material which is dangerous and encouraging the reusability of digital devices. Recent research is proving the latest trends and models for utilizing the green computing and promoting the vendors investments[3]
