Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION: Advanced Smart Energy Consumption Monitoring and Cost Optimization System is designed to efficiently monitor, analyze, and control electrical energy usage in real time. With the increasing demand for electricity and rising energy costs, traditional energy meters are insufficient as they lack real-time monitoring, detailed analysis, and load control capabilities. This project addresses these limitations by developing an intelligent and automated energy management system. The proposed system utilizes voltage and current sensors to continuously measure electrical parameters such as voltage, current, and power for multiple loads including a fan, light, and motor. These signals are processed by the ESP32 microcontroller using ADC channels. Based on these inputs, the system calculates instantaneous power using P = V x I and determines total energy consumption over time in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Additionally, the system estimates electricity cost in real time using predefined tariff rates. A key feature of the system is automatic load control using relay modules. When energy consumption exceeds a predefined threshold, the system disconnects selected loads to reduce excessive usage. The system also provides real-time monitoring through an LCD display, showing all parameters continuously. The system is cost-effective, scalable, and easy to implement using standard components. Experimental results demonstrate reliable performance, improved energy efficiency, and effective cost optimization. Therefore, the proposed system is suitable for residential and small-scale industrial applications.
