Energy management and monitoring have improved over time as IoT has developed, becoming intelligent and quite effective. The Internet of Things (IoT) has proved to be a promising platform for smart energy management and electricity consumption monitoring. IoT is undoubtedly a technology worth investigating and learning about, with a variety of use cases and superior accuracy in monitoring electricity consumption.
Planning and management of power consumption patterns in various contexts, such as residential and industrial, are included in IoT energy monitoring systems. The Internet of Things (IoT) Energy Monitoring system is made to track and manage energy consumption, enhance capacity utilization, boost business productivity, reduce maintenance and labor requirements, and enhance the dependability of energy equipment.
We at BCI have helped several of our clients with their energy monitoring requirements with our Senskon-powered energy monitoring solution.
What is Senskon?
Senskon(TM) is a patent pending innovation from BCI to provide a seamless sense-collect-and-connect platform that provides cutting-edge performance in integrating various industrial, retail, and supply chain processes, field sensors, and machines to the cloud platform.
Designed in India using best-in-class components, Senskon enables end-to-end management of devices and data for your critical assets improving transparency, enabling analytics and real-time control through its interactive Web and mobile Dashboard, alerts and reporting mechanisms.
It is a robust and configurable platform with wide application areas, such as energy monitoring, condition monitoring, GPS-based location tracking, and Enterprise Asset Management.
How does Senskon monitor energy consumption levels?
The IoT-based power consumption monitoring system has three layers. The hardware component of the architecture, which includes smart meters and device sensors, is found in the bottom layer.
These devices can connect to networks via wired or wireless connections thanks to flexible connectivity. Numerous advanced features, including intelligent monitoring and analysis of energy consumption based on factors like power factor, power consumption, peak voltage, and power consumption, are included with smart energy meters. Meters can be used with various monitoring targets due to their adaptability.
Using common IoT connection protocols, the middle layer handles the task of transmitting the collected data to the gateway and then to a local computer or the Internet (cloud). Sensor placement is much more flexible now, and they can be put in convenient spots or even in far-off places.
Inteliiot Energy Monitoring solution is based on its Senskon Smart Asset Platform. Using standard certified Energy Meters and Inteliiot’s patented Senskon platform, data is collected automatically from the equipment. The collected data is uploaded to the cloud and stored securely in a data lake. An intuitive graphical dashboard displays key criteria and reports customized as per the client’s needs.
The mobile or web application that displays the collected data is the top layer. The associated software application or other enterprise systems, such as Manufacturing Execution Systems, Building Management Systems (BMS), or Advanced Production and Scheduling Systems (APS), receive this data after it has been collected from the device or the cloud. These systems then carry out a thorough analysis of the data to produce insights that can be put to use.
Benefits of Energy Monitoring with Senskon
Cost Savings
IoT energy management solutions lower operating costs and labor requirements while also reducing energy consumption in homes and businesses. You have the capacity to anticipate the energy consumption pattern and adjust your plans and budget accordingly.
Increased energy efficiency
The information gathered by sensors can be used to control the temperature and lighting in real-time. The use of IoT in energy management and monitoring through the use of intelligent sensors and detectors lowers overall energy consumption.
Remote Monitoring
Those in charge can remotely monitor and instantly control their energy systems thanks to cloud access. It gives you the ability to recognize, monitor, and comprehend how much energy you use as well as to report on your progress over time.
Advanced reports
The real-time energy monitoring system continuously transmits data about particular energy system parameters and device performance, which can be calculated to create operations that increase efficiency.
Energy consumption patterns
Reports, data charts, and visualization are provided by the dashboard for electricity consumption monitoring, making it easier for you to understand the information. These analyses aid in identifying operational inefficiencies.
Minimize carbon footprint
Businesses are integrating IoT energy monitoring software to make their operations more sustainable, reduce their carbon footprint, optimize resource use, measure and analyze their environmental impact, and develop future-focused strategies centered on net-zero goals.
