Bais and Ashish Polke author1@gmail.com <p>As a result, solar photovoltaic systems are a globally used renewable energy source. However, rising solar panel temperatures are one factor contributing to solar systems' decreased efficiency. This phenomenon can be avoided by using a cooling fan. mounted on the solar panel's rear side. Unexpected events and bad weather also reduce the efficiency of the solar system. An Internet of Things (IoT) system was utilized to monitor the solar system's condition and regulate the cooling fan in order to solve this issue. Arduino was the primary microprocessor utilized in Internet of Things systems. An IoT system can be easily and affordably implemented with Arduino. Additionally, we can use a long-lasting supercapacitor to run the fans by adhering to the paradigm of using ESS (Energy Storage System) intelligently. After the system as a whole was designed and tested, its efficiency rose by about 4.7%. Despite having a modest 30W capacity, it is anticipated that its efficiency will rise soon when it is applied to a photovoltaic system larger than 1kW.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> 2024-12-20T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ijcds.org/index.php/home/article/view/30 LITERATURE REVIEW: ADVANCES IN SMART LOAD MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND DEMAND RESPONSE 2025-01-25T16:49:21+00:00 Sakshi Ghumde, Rani Nagpure, Sahil Halmare, Umakant Pathode author1@gmail.com Dr. Yogesh Bais, Prasanna Titarmare author2@gmail.com <p>The optimization of energy management in smart grids is crucial for enhancing energy efficiency, ensuring grid stability, and promoting the integration of renewable energy sources. In recent years, the adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning (ML) has paved the way for smarter, more efficient energy management solutions.

Bais, Ashish Polke author2@gmail.com <p>Consequently, solar photovoltaic systems are a renewable energy source that is &nbsp;utilized all over the world. Nonetheless, one element causing solar systems to become less efficient is the growing temperatures of solar panels. By installing a cooling fan on the back of the solar panel, this issue can be prevented. Bad weather and unforeseen circumstances also lower the solar system's efficiency. This problem was resolved by using an Internet of Things (IoT) system to control the cooling fan and monitor the state of the solar system. The main microprocessor used in Internet of Things systems was Arduino. Arduino makes it simple and inexpensive to construct an Internet of Things solution. Additionally, by following the principle of using ESS (Energy Storage System) strategically, we may use a long-lasting supercapacitor to operate the fans. The system's overall efficiency increased by roughly 4.7% following design and testing. Even though it only has a small 30W capacity, when used in a photovoltaic system greater than 1kW, its efficiency is expected to increase shortly<strong>. </strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> 2024-12-20T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ijcds.org/index.php/home/article/view/32 INTRODUCTION TO VOICE RECOGNITION IN SMART HOMES 2025-01-25T17:04:05+00:00 Mayur Wajge, Rohit Ingole, Aman Chanekar author1@gmail.com Prasanna Titarmare, Dr. Yogesh S. Bais, Nitin Kawade author2@gmail.com <p>These days, smart homes are a need in the modern world. The days of smart homes only appearing in science fiction films are now a thing of the past, as they have achieved a lot in the last few decades. Home automation has given life a completely different meaning than it did in the past. In the past, each of our household appliances—including the TV, air conditioner, lights, fans, and more—was controlled by a separate remote control. Another issue is that managing all those remote controls can be stressful at times, particularly for the elderly and disabled. In the twenty-first century, everything—from homes to factories—is mechanized. Devices like fans, screens, air conditioners, lamps, and more are controlled by home automation. In addition to saving time and energy, home automation lessens human labour. Additionally, it serves as a protective measure. The elderly and others with physical disabilities can easily transition from the centralized unit to household appliances. Voice controlled home automation controls the household's gadgets with a person's voice. The control unit receives voice commands via a smartphone. All of these systems and technologies are reviewed in this study.&nbsp;</p> 2023-12-20T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ijcds.org/index.php/home/article/view/33 IOT-BASED INDUCTION MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM 2025-01-25T17:11:26+00:00 Nitin Kawde author1@gmail.com Sankul Rahangdale, Aditya Dongre, Vivek Nagpure, Priyanka Ramteke, Priyanka Gaurkhede, Shital Yende author2@gmail.com <p>The main aim of the paper is to process the time data acquisition under the supervisory physical parameter of a power induction motor.
