IoT-based Smartgrid System for Continuous Power Supply in Smart Cities

In today's energy landscape, there is a rising demand for stable and uninterrupted power availability, particularly in fluctuating power sources or faulty grid infrastructure. To overcome these issues with conventional power grids by regulating fluctuations in both supply and demand includes creating efficient energy management systems (EMS) by combining several techniques, such as microgrids based on renewable energy sources (RES), smart grids, and smart devices control via local area networks (LANs) or the Internet of Things (IoT). This research investigates an uninterrupted power supply model in terms of a smart grid by integrating an IoT-based microgrid system for smart cities. This case study has been investigated by creating a SIMULINK model that includes RES and IoT-enabled monitoring. The proposed work could be controlled remotely via the internet, and it would be possible to determine if any branch's failure was detected. It will notify the user using ThingSpeak in critical conditions and enable the activation of a backup power source to ensure an uninterrupted power supply. A power monitoring system would be utilized to provide the real-time status of the microgrid. The proposed simulation was completed successfully, highlighting effective outcomes in an efficient EM system to increase overall efficiency while preserving a sustainable environment.
