Abstract :
In this paper, an energy-saving LED control module is designed and implemented for agent-based Micro-gird systems. The proposed LED control modules have the properties of low power consumption and low cost which can be integrated with agent-based Micro-Grid systems. The hardware of proposed control module uses Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with RS485 and RS232 to control LED lamps. An embedded software is proposed to control the LED control hardware and communicate with agent-based Micro-Grid system. The experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce 22% power consumption.
