DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF HIGH EFFICIENT ZIGBEE BASED ADAPTIVE ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR SMART OFFICES

Abstract

As technology becomes part of our daily lives, the demand for energy increases proportionally. Hence, the energy efficiency of the devices that we use in our lives becomes very important due to the limited energy resources. In this study, a Zigbee based high efficient adaptive energy management system for smart offices is developed. The hardware prototypes and embedded and server software for this system are designed and implemented. Then, the energy efficiency performance of this system is measured and obtained in real office environments. According to the measurement results, it is observed that the designed system contributes to the energy saving in office environments which remarkably increases the energy efficiency.
