ABSTRACT
Energy shortage is a global challenge with significant implications for economies, societies, and the
environment, including the Philippines. Promoting energy conservation in households is an effective
approach to address this issue. In the Municipality of Midsayap, North Cotabato, Philippines, unmonitored
energy consumption leads to excessive energy usage in households. To address this problem, this paper
aims to research, build, test and implement a Real-Time Energy Consumption Monitoring (RECM) device
using IoT technology. The RECM device, equipped with an SCT013 current sensor, enables real-time 24/7
monitoring of energy consumption. The monitored data is displayed in graphical and numerical formats
using the Thing Speak cloud storage service. The RECM device was deployed in households, and a survey
was conducted to evaluate its functionality and effectiveness. The results indicate that the design of the
RECM device is a highly useful and efficient tool for real-time energy consumption monitoring. This paper
provides circuit diagrams, wiring diagrams, and the list of materials used to develop the Real-Time Energy
Consumption Monitoring (RECM) device using IoT.”

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background of the Study
Electricity plays a pivotal role in modern society, powering industries, supporting critical
infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of life for individuals worldwide. Electricity continues
to position as the “fuel” of the future. Worldwide energy demand grew by 2.3% in 2018. It is the
fastest growth of demand in this decade. The performance driven by a global economy and
strongly cooling and heating needs in some regions [1]. However, the current state of electricity
supply is mired in a crisis. Energy crisis is very common among countries. In the Philippines,
according to the Department of Energy in year 2016, there was a significant increase of 10% in
the Philippine energy usage and its peak demand is at 8.7% ascribing to several factors such as
increase in temperature caused by the El Nino. This kind of weather triggers to increase the use
of the electricity for it powers many kinds of appliances for cooling needs in each household or
establishments [2]. Without monitoring the household electrical usage may result to the increase
in the electrical usage compared to its normal use.
Metering energy consumption of a household collects data of the day-to-day usage of electricity
that could be used in estimating and saving energy [3]. In the Muncipality of Midsayap, North
Cotabato, power consumers do not get a clear idea on how the power consumption was carried](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/10323acii02-230810111915-c9643076/85/The-Development-of-Real-Time-Energy-Consumption-Monitoring-using-IoT-1-320.jpg)

out by the home appliances and to what extent these appliances contribute to the overall power
consumption of the household. This gave the researchers the motivation to pursue “The
development of Real-Time Energy Consumption Monitoring (RECM) using IoT.”
1.2. Objectives

IoT with the following features and functionalities:
1. Enables consumers to monitor their real-time and daily energy consumption.
2. Displays current rating, power usage, and daily consumption through an LCD interface.
3. Establishes an Internet connection to send monitored data to the ThingSpeak cloud storage
service.
4. Includes a backup storage to store monitored data in the event of an Internet connection failure.
1.3. Conceptual Framework
Figure 1 depicts the conceptual framework of the study. The independent variables represent the
problems faced by electric consumers, while the moderating variable represents the solution to
these problems—the RECM system. The dependent variables encompass the features and
functionalities of the RECM device.

2.1. User Behavior and Feedback in Energy Conservation
Providing individualized energy use information through methods such as improved billing,
periodic feedback, and continuous feedback can effectively contribute to reductions in energy
consumption [5]. Proving daily feedback on power consumption, along with a generous rebate](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/10323acii02-230810111915-c9643076/85/The-Development-of-Real-Time-Energy-Consumption-Monitoring-using-IoT-2-320.jpg)

program, could potentially result in an average reduction of 10-15% in electricity use within an
apartment setting [6]. However, homes using a certain energy monitoring device called PCM
(Power and Control Monitor) exhibited a statistically insignificant reduction of 12% in mean
electrical consumption [7].
While conducting a comprehensive review of the available literature there were not many studies
that particularly address user behavior and feedback in the context of energy saving. Despite the
fact that there hasn't been much research specifically on this theme, it presents a crucial area of
investigation with significant potential for promoting sustainable energy practices.
2.2. IoT Based Energy Consumption Monitoring
The adoption of smart home technologies in buildings or residences presents a significant
opportunity to reduce energy consumption [9]. The Internet of Things (IoT) has ushered in a
revolution in electronics and IT, enabling everyday objects to connect to the global Internet
network [8]. IoT can be effectively utilized to enhance energy efficiency, promote renewable
energy utilization, and mitigate environmental impacts associated with energy use [10]. Through
IoT technology, remote control and monitoring of various electrical appliances, including air
conditioners and lighting systems, are made possible [11].
A specific study by Marques in 2017 highlights the connection between energy consumption
monitoring and the Internet of Things paradigm. The study aims to design and develop an
autonomous system called iPlug, which enables the monitoring and control of Internet-connected
electrical equipment via Wi-Fi [12]. In this study, the RECM device incorporates IoT capabilities
allowing a 24/7 real-time monitoring of energy consumption.
2.3. Raspberry Pi-Based Energy Monitoring Systems
Raspberry Pi, in particular, offers more advanced features compared to traditional
microcontrollers [13]. Raspberry Pi is low cost and has a reputation as a highly dependable
technology for tracking industry energy consumption making it suitable for energy metering
projects [14]. The utilization of Raspberry Pi in smart energy meter was found to be energy-
efficient, consuming less power while providing faster performance. Furthermore, Raspberry Pi
was noted for its dual UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter), enhancing its
capabilities for communication and data transfer [15]. The present study also adopts the
utilization of Raspberry Pi, similar to the previously mentioned studies, due to its various
advantages such as cost-effectiveness, versatility, and efficiency.
3. RESEARCH DESIGN
The researchers used the Developmental Research methods since study involves the development
of a real-time energy consumption monitoring system. It focuses on designing, creating, and
optimizing a device, the IoT-based energy consumption monitoring system.
A survey was conducted in order to gather feedback from users or electric consumers who have
interacted with the RECM device. The objective of the survey was to capture user experiences,
identify usability issues, and collect suggestions for improvements or additional features for the
future researchers. The survey was conducted in the Municipality of Midsayap, North Cotabato,
Philippines. There were fifty (50) respondents who evaluated the design composed of
homeowners and COTELCO-PPALMA employees. The data collected from respondents who
interacted with the RECM device underwent descriptive statistical analysis. The analysis](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/10323acii02-230810111915-c9643076/85/The-Development-of-Real-Time-Energy-Consumption-Monitoring-using-IoT-3-320.jpg)

2. Implement an automatic power tripping mechanism when the maximum limit of power
consumption per day, week, or month is reached.
3. Develop a daily summary report sent via text message to notify consumers of their
energy consumption within a 24-hour period.
