Smart Energy Meter for Household Consumption

Problem Statement ID – PY088

Traditional energy meters provide little insight beyond total consumption, making it hard for users to optimize their electricity usage. They face challenges like , lack of real-time monitoring and breakdown of appliance-level consumption, high electricity bills due to inefficient usage and environmental impact from excessive energy consumption.

Overview

The Smart Energy Meter is designed to monitor household electricity consumption in real-time, helping users optimize usage, cut costs, and reduce environmental impact.

Objective: provide real-time energy tracking, offer appliance-level insights to identify high-consumption devices and send alerts & energy-saving suggestions to reduce wastage.

Proposed Solution: Sensors (SCT-013, ZMPT101B) measure current & voltage, ESP32 (Wi-Fi) transmits data to the cloud, Mobile App/Web Dashboard displays real-time usage & alerts and AI-driven insights help optimize energy consumption.

Outcome: Lower electricity bills, reduced energy waste, and a smarter, eco-friendly home.
