Research of University Building’s Electrical Energy Consumption Management Based on IoT & AI

Abstract

Energy is an important factor in socio-economic development. The level of energy reserves is closely related to the national development, and has a great impact on the national economic development. However, many buildings in university/college, the management of electrical equipment, e.g., lighting and air conditioning is still under the control of students in manual way. According to the published data combined with the often seen phenomenon, the wastage of electrical energy in university/college is serious; and it has become a hot issue. This paper provides a solution to the above challenges in an automatic way through a combined application of technologies like Internet of things, AI, sensors, intelligent control devices and wireless communication technologies. It organized in four sections; the second is a comprehensive literature review after a brief introduction; the third section provides a case of Building Electrical Energy Consumption (BEEC) management and then presents a recommended solution; the future development trend and future work is given in the final part
