description Solar energy is a green and sustainable source of energy which can be converted to electrical power through photovoltaic (PV) panels. In an electrical network system, electrical energy is supplied to end consumers through utility networks. Smart Grids allow consumers to generate electrical energy locally and surplus energy at the user’s end can be supplied to the national grid. Bidirectional energy meters keep the record of the imported and exported units to the grid and vice versa. Photovoltaic panels cannot generate power at night, so users have to import power from electric grid. The utility charges the consumer monthly as per net balance of the energy meter depending on the energy trade balance. This IoT-based meter allows real-time monitoring of power ratings via the Android application.
