Development and Performance Testing of the Automated Building Energy Management System with IoT (ABEMS-IoT) Case Study: Big-Scale Automobile Factory

摘要

This article presented the development of the automated building energy management system using the Internet of Things (IoT) so-called aBEMS-IoT, and it was implemented in the Big-Scale Automobile Factory in Thailand. The aBEMS-IoT consisted of three parts, hardware which consists of the smart sensors and control devices, software which compost of intelligent control algorithm, report, mobile application, and notification by application LINE, a communication system is using a wireless solution (LoRa). The communication and control devices are to enable Plug & Play installation and set various parameters through the mobile phone. Moreover, the aBEMS-IoT connect a database and show the information in a graphical interface. The results indicated that the aBEMS-IoT, which was installed in the automobile factory work properly and was able to save the money of 12%. This system will be the technology for supporting demand response in the future.
