Abstract

The Internet of Things used in solar power generation to improve the functioning, monitoring, performance, and maintenance of solar power plants. The method is to monitor the dust in the solar panel to achieve maximum power. Using IoT technology, it monitors solar panel loads by data for remote users. The application can obtain data on current and past average matrices such as voltage, temperature, current. The cost of renewable energy equipment is reducing globally due to technological advances, which are promoting solar plant installations on a large scale. The Discussion in this paper focuses on a cost-effective solar power plant monitoring approach based on IoT. It also monitors voltage and current intensity and monitors dust. In addition to tracking, it identifies faults and provides historical analysis of the area.
