Analysis of IoT-based Smart Grid with Buck-Boost Converter for Voltage Stability

An increasing demand for efficient power distribution and grid stability has catalyzed the evolution of IoT-integrated smart grid systems. The smart grids facilitate real-time monitoring, energy management, optimized voltage regulation, and adaptability, making them indispensable for modern power networks. The project reveals an IoT-based Smart Grid with a buck-boost Converter for voltage stability; it is designed to manage voltage levels dynamically based on real- time grid situations, thus assuring a stable and uninterrupted supply of power. The core component of the system is the ESP32 microcontroller, responsible for remote monitoring and control. There are several forms of sensors in operation around the clock, collecting voltage, current, power factor, and frequency fluctuations, painting a general picture of grid efficiency.
