Abstract
Utilizing every available technology in improving the effectiveness of sustainable energy schemes is an important tool that should be harnessed in the war against fossil fuel and other problems associated with global warming. Enhancing sustainable energy schemes is fundamental to improving the rate of global energy efficiency coupled with decreasing the share of carbon systems in the global energy mix. With the integration of modern technologies like the internet of things (IoT), machine learning, and artificial intelligence, energy systems are generally smarter, more efficient, reliable and also possess the potential to mitigate global energy problems. This paper reviews the application of IoT in wind farms and the energy sector at large. It establishes that integrating IoT into wind farms has the potential to save about 50 million to 230 million US dollars of its operation expenses, improve the current 743 GW global wind power capacity to an amount substantial to enable it supply 20% of the world's electricity by 2030 and also allow wind energy technology to hold a good share in the 100 billion objects that is expected to be connected to the internet by 2025. In addition to this, it reviews the challenges associated with the deployment of IoT in wind farms and the future of block-chain technology and green IoT in energy systems.
