Abstract - In the era of modernization, the Internet of Things (IoT) emerges as a pivotal technology, particularly in enhancing the performance and monitoring of solar energy systems. By integrating IoT into solar plants, real-time supervision becomes feasible, allowing users to monitor crucial parameters such as current, voltage, and light intensity. This monitoring system addresses the challenges associated with remote location monitoring, making it especially relevant for off-grid solar home systems in remote areas, including coastal communities. The IoT-based monitoring system enables users to remotely track the performance of solar panels and receive alerts for abnormal conditions such as panel breakage or excessive dust accumulation. Through mobile connectivity, users can access real-time data and receive warning messages in case of anomalies, facilitating efficient fault detection and maintenance. The proposed solution aims to prototype this IoT-enabled monitoring system, offering a cost-effective and scalable approach to monitoring and maintaining solar plants in remote locations.
Key Words: Internet of Things (IoT), Solar Energy, light, Smart Solar, Temperature, Remote areas.
