Successful Energy Management with IoT Supporting Technology: Evolution, Concepts, Applications, and Challenges

Energy management system (EMS) is gaining attention in a variety of industries. As we all know, Industry 4.0 is characterized by the integration of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data to create intelligent and interconnected systems. This will help increase the efficiency of industrial processes and Improve production efficiency by AI learning algorithm. Sensors are a key component of IoT and play a key role in Industry 4.0 by collecting data about the physical world, including temperature, humidity, pressure, electrical power, and other parameters. This information is then sent to other devices and systems for EMS. This is analyzed to gain insights into the performance of machines and processes. This, in turn, helps the EMS make informed decisions about how to allocate resources in the future as well. The presentation aims to explain the IoT solutions for better energy management with real applications.
