SISTEMA DE GESTÃO DE ENERGIA DE CAMPUS UNIVERSITÁRIO COM A PLATAFORMA HOME ASSISTANT

Abstract

This work aimed to develop a platform for managing electricity consumption at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). To this end, an energy control pilot project was implemented in Sector 1 - Block 11 of the institution, using the Home Assistant (HASS) platform. Various devices were installed, including a multi-measurement energy meter to monitor the block's overall consumption, IoT devices with Tasmota firmware to control the consumption of air conditioners and lighting points, and integration with the photovoltaic system. This enabled the development of a dashboard model for visualizing the data of the block and each of its rooms, allowing for both macro and micro management. Furthermore, the work evaluated the use of the Home Assistant platform and Tasmota firmware, which proved to be very promising for the institution. Additionally, a device was developed for controlling HVAC equipment via LED IR and acquiring thermal data from the environment. This allowed the creation of automations, enabling the control of environments without the need for human intervention. These initiatives contributed to significant improvements in terms of efficiency, sustainability, security, and user experience, in addition to preparing UFMS for future challenges.
