Abstract

This paper presents an IoT-based smart energy meter designed for accurate, real-time monitoring of household and industrial electrical consumption. Customers and system operators can view real-time patterns of energy consumption with an easy-to-use web-based dashboard. Users can obtain important insights into their electricity consumption through graphical representations and historical data analysis, allowing for more efficient load management, energy conservation, and cost optimization. Users can obtain energy data from any location with internet connectivity thanks to the system’s support for remote monitoring. By giving end users comprehensive and easily accessible information, the suggested smart energy meter improves energy use transparency. Additionally, it supports the shift to intelligent energy management systems by enhancing energy efficiency and facilitating informed decision-making. The design, which makes use of IoT technology, is a major step toward the modernization of smart grids and sustainable energy management systems. It also marks a substantial improvement in smart metering infrastructure.The system integrates a microcontroller, current and voltage sensors, and Wi-Fi com- munication to collect and transmit energy data to a cloud server. A user-friendly dashboard allows consumers to visualize energy usage patterns, enabling better load management and cost optimization. The proposed design enhances transparency, supports remote monitoring, and represents a significant step toward smart grid modernization.
