Building Energy Optimization

Project Type: Self-Initiated

Project Description

This project endeavors to develop a smart energy management system for residential buildings utilizing solar panels, microcontrollers, and smart building techniques to achieve a zero-net-energy building (ZNE). The system empowers homeowners to generate their own electricity, utilizing surplus energy to sell back to the electrical company and drawing from the grid during periods of high demand or at night.
