IOT BASED LOAD SHARING AND POWER MANAGEMENT

Abstract

Load management allows utilities to reduce demand for electricity during peak usage times, which can, in turn, reduce costs by eliminating the need for peaking power plants. In addition, some peaking power plants can take more than an hour to bring on-line which makes load management even more critical should a plant go off-line unexpectedly for example. Load management can also help to reduce harmful emissions. New load management technologies are constantly under development both by hospital, private industry and public entities.
