The design and implementation of a Cloud Renewable Energy Management System

Energy shortage has become a serious problems, as petrochemical, natural gas, and other energy sources are gradually depleted, while hydraulic energy is not sufficient, and there are doubts regarding the safety of nuclear energy. Consequently, renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, tidal, and other energy sources, are actively being developed in order to promote green energy education. Taiwan´s Bureau of Energy and the Ministry of Education subsidize schools at all levels to establish solar and wind power generation systems. In addition to teaching purposes, the generated power is directly integrated into the power grid as an auxiliary power source for lighting. However, these systems are not properly maintained after establishment due to management problems. As these systems cannot work properly, it results in waste of sources. It is pitiful that such usable energy is not used. This study proposes a Cloud Renewable Energy Management System to integrate the solar and wind power generation systems in schools at all levels to help all the schools with the management of renewable energy management systems.
