The Arduino Uno is an open-source microcontroller board based on the Microchip ATmega328P microcontroller (MCU) and developed by Arduino.cc and initially released in 2010. [2] [3] The microcontroller board is equipped with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to various expansion boards (shields) and other circuits. [1]
Electricity is by its nature difficult to store and has to be available on demand, so the supply shall match the demand very closely at any time despite the continuous variations of both. [2] In a deregulated grid, a transmission system operator is responsible for the balancing (in the US electric system smaller entities, so called balancing ...
Electrical substation. Load balancing, load matching, or daily peak demand reserve refers to the use of various techniques by electrical power stations to store excess electrical power during low demand periods for release as demand rises. [1] The aim is for the power supply system to have a load factor of 1.
OpenADR is an open-source smart grid communications standard used for demand response applications. [125] It is typically used to send information and signals to cause electrical power-using devices to be turned off during periods of higher demand. MultiSpeak has created a specification that supports distribution functionality of the smart grid.
Arduino (/ ɑː r ˈ d w iː n oʊ /) is an Italian open-source hardware and software company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for building digital devices.
The term smart meter often refers to an electricity meter, but it also may mean a device measuring natural gas, water or district heating consumption. [1] [2] More generally, a smart meter is an electronic device that records information such as consumption of electric energy, voltage levels, current, and power factor.
There’s the Law 0f Supply and the Law of Demand. In an unimpeded market, supply and demand determine the value of a product or service. Supply represents the amount of something that producers ...
