IoT-Based Monitoring, Communication, and Control of Small Wind Turbines Using IoT Cloud Service

Abstract

Addressing global climate change requires a shift to sustainable and renewable energy sources. Utilizing wind power via wind turbines presents a viable remedy. However, because wind patterns are unpredictable and these turbines are located in remote areas, effectively operating wind farms continues to be a difficulty. In this work, we present an integrated system that uses IOT Cloud Service to monitor, connect with, and manage small wind turbines utilizing IoT (Internet of Things) technology. We solve the issues with data collection and control those older turbines without supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems confront by fusing cloud-enabled IoT hubs with on-site sensing units. Our method guarantees effective control of wind energy devices, two-way communication, and real-time monitoring. With an emphasis on utilizing IoT cloud services, this paper offers a thorough examination of the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technology for the monitoring, communication, and control of tiny wind turbines. In decentralized and off-grid energy applications, small wind turbines are vital, and maximizing energy output and guaranteeing long-term sustainability requires optimizing their performance and maintenance. The scalability, flexibility, and real-time capabilities required to efficiently operate small wind energy projects are sometimes absent from traditional monitoring and control systems.
