Open Energy Monitor Project

All hardware is based on the arduino and raspberry pi platforms.

Open energy monitor project.

Open source energy monitoring tools to help us relate to our use of energy our energy systems and the challenge of sustainable energy. An all in one 2 circuit energy monitor and base station which collects data hosts the emoncms software and can also receive data from other sensor nodes. The next 20 years will see a revolution in our energy systems as we switch away from fossil fuels towards a zero carbon energy supply. Monitor electricity temperature and humidity.

An in depth look at the basic principles of electricity monitoring sustainable energy and more. Please note these calculators do not take into account core permeability and core al value. Open source monitoring for understanding energy. Exploring the context of renewable energy and zero carbon energy use.

How to build an arduino energy monitor measuring mains voltage and current. Our open hardware energy monitoring arduino compatible shield featuring the above circuit alongside voltage measurement for real power calculation. In order to overcome these limitations of existing energy monitoring systems this study presents an entirely open source low cost power monitoring system which is capable of many types of measurements for both loads and generation sources such as solar photovoltaic systems wind power microhydro biomass or fuel cells.
