Abstract

The demand for clean electricity sources is increasing as there is a constant need for electricity while people trying to minimize the environmental impact caused by the harvesting of energy. Therefore, the use of renewable energy smart grid system has become more common these days and there are advancements in technologies in reducing the consumption of electricity. Hence, this project is developed to function self-sufficiently instead of depending on the grid. Besides, the development of the intelligent lighting system has further controlled the energy consumption of the lighting system by functioning only when needed. The development of this project involves the setup of a solar panel system, an intelligent lighting system, and a mobile application for controlling the system. The solar panels are estimated to generate at least 12Wh for the system to function self-sufficiently. Meanwhile, the controller of the system will automatically switch on the lights when the presence of a user is detected, and also switching off the lights automatically when there is no longer presence of the user. The functions and settings for the system can be easily adjusted with the mobile application developed alongside the system. As a result, the system will not only be functioning independently but also reducing the consumption of energy.
