In this entrepreneur science project of the Internet of Things (IoT) has been focused on controlling of hybrid energy system using Internet through a website. There are various combinations of energy and all of them are alternative to each other like solar energy, wind energy, biofuel, fuel cell, etc.
Design with Ease
"Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it's really how it works," said Steve Jobs.
But the need for controlling of hybrid energy system arises when it is installed for domestic or commercial purposes. At this point, IoT plays an important role in controlling the energy supply. The main criteria is the switching between the two sources of energy i.e. solar and wind energy without any inconvenience through a website using the ESP8266 Wi-Fi module. The data is transmitted wirelessly through the website to the ESP8266 module which controls the sources of energy. The transmitted data is controlled remotely using IoT. This enables the user to have a flexible control mechanism remotely through a secured internet web connection. This system helps the user to control the sources of energy, manually and remotely using a smartphone or personal computer. This system is very efficient, cheaper and flexible in operation.
Results
"You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality," said Walt Disney.
The whole system is organized and consists of two nodes i.e, Solar panel and wind mill. Nodes connected with two Op-amps respectively and interfaced to Esp8266. An LED bulb is controlled using this Op-amp.
Successful connection of ESP8266 module with the Hybrid Energy System and with a single click the whole system can be controlled from anywhere in the world.
The maximum operating range between the ESP8266 Wi-Fi module with router is 50 meters.
The system is cost-effective, low power consumption and secured.
Conclusion
This combination of solar-wind energy source will be highly effective in commercial areas.
Less maintenance charge is required.
Moreover there is no power cut or load shedding at any times.
In addition to this, the system is controlled by INTERNET OF THINGS as site manager is able to receive detailed information of facility at site, efficient maintenance for regular checkup and failure could be performed conveniently.
