Prototype Architecture to Control Building Energy Usage Using PLC and CPS

In today's word to do almost any day to day activity energy is used by everyone at different places such as home, work place etc. It has been used in industries, transportation, and entertainment, at home for cooking, washing, cooling, lighting and so on. The energy demand has increased hugely and need has risen to find solution to conserve it, save it and use it systematically. The utilization of energy especially at home is increasing and hence the overall usage of energy is also increased in domestic sector. This is a sector in which by using some simple methods or ways the improper usage and wastage of energy can be avoided by deploying smart circuitry in home without much additional infrastructure. This article represents the system to manage home energy and eventually to manage energy for the building. The main system component of proposed system is PLC based renewable energy gateway, communicating power supply (CPS) and a wireless sensor network (WSN). The real time data of different home servers from the several building should be collected by central system and can be stored on cloud using IOT.
