HOME AUTOMATION SYSTEM BY SOURCE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY USING ZIGBEE METHOD

Abstract: The elevation in earlier years in electronics and communication, computer science and information technology domain has resulted, that we can generate the energy by using renewable energy sources. For management of home equipments we can use this energy. However, the existing systems do not allow a user to get a feasibility to actively mitigate the power consumption of home equipments. In the earlier days, the electric home equipments can be controlled and monitored with the help of homespun power lines by using power line communication technology. But, now days a Zig bee technology is used for the electric home equipments for controlling and monitoring for more probable than before. This paper describes the methodology of renewable energy based home automation in which two things are consider one is energy consumption and another is energy generation. In this, ZigBee is used for monitoring energy consumption of home equipments and Power Line Communication (PLC) is used to monitoring energy generation. Then home server collects the energy consumption data and energy generation data and analyzes them for energy approximation and control the home energy utilization schedule to slump the energy cost. Then energy data of home servers evaluates them, and generates useful statistical examination information aggregated by the remote energy management server. The system gives more efficient energy saving and result in home energy cost reduction.
