Design and Implementation of a Multi-Standard Event-Driven Energy Management System For Smart Buildings

This paper presents the design and implementation of a multi-standard energy management system, which leverages heterogeneous devices to convert existing buildings into Smart Buildings. Its main purpose is to increase the energy efficiency of buildings providing user awareness to promote green behaviors. The proposed solution has been designed to enable interoperability across different standards and protocols in order to develop applications with which end users can interact with the system. Finally, a web portal and a smartphone application to give feedback and to view environmental information are presented

A Review on Internet of Things Solutions for Intelligent Energy Control in Buildings for Smart City Applications

© 2017 The Authors. A smart city exploits sustainable information and communication technologies to improve the quality and the performance of urban services for citizens and government, while reducing resources consumption. Intelligent energy control in buildings is an important aspect in this. The Internet of Things can provide a solution. It aims to connect numerous heterogeneous devices through the internet, for which it needs a flexible layered architecture where the things, the people and the cloud services are combined to facilitate an application task. Such flexible IoT hierarchical architecture model will be introduced in this paper with an overview of each key component for intelligent energy control in buildings for smart cities
