IoT (Internet of Things) Automation - Smart Energy Usage Tracker

 

Notes:

• Problem Solved: Logs and analyzes power usage from smart meters.

• Customization Benefits: Track per-device energy and set alerts.

• Further Adoption: Sync to cloud dashboards or billing tools.

Python Code:

import random

import csv

from datetime import datetime

def simulate_energy_reading():

    return round(random.uniform(0.1, 2.5), 2)  # kWh usage

with open("energy_log.csv", "a", newline="") as f:

    writer = csv.writer(f)

    usage = simulate_energy_reading()

    timestamp = datetime.now().isoformat()

    writer.writerow([timestamp, usage])

    print(f"Logged: {timestamp} - {usage} kWh")
