ROLE OF IOT ON ENHANCING ENERGY EFFICIENCY FOR BOTH WSN AND URBAN SMART GRIDS

The potential for Internet of Things (IoT) technology to transform energy management has led to significant interest in its incorporation into smart grid systems. This review discusses the state of IoT-powered smart grids today, focusing on applications, current technology, and power quality (PQ) issues. Key problems including harmonics, transients, and voltage fluctuations are identified, and mitigation techniques using sophisticated filters and intelligent systems like fuzzy logic control (FLC) and artificial neural networks (ANN) are investigated. Concerns about interoperability and scalability are among the other challenges the review lists for IoT implementation. The revolutionary potential of IoT in improving smart grid efficiency and dependability is highlighted in our findings, which provide valuable insights for scholars and practitioners seeking to develop this sector.
