Abstract :
In recent decades, energy management concept is urgently needed to rescue our world from submersion. In this paper, an energy management solution is proposed for adoption in infrastructure and public facilities. Large scale adoption should save energy more efficiently and is a model of the general public. The system uses ZigBee and Power Line Communication as transmission medium which significantly lower the installation cost. The detail of the system is described including the system overview, architecture as well as performance evaluation.
