Greenhouse Environmental Monitoring Through the Implementation of IoT and Renewable Energy Systems

  • Unique Paper ID: 196038
  • Volume: 12
  • Issue: 11
  • PageNo: 2493-2501
  • Abstract:
  • This paper presents an IoT-based smart greenhouse monitoring system powered by renewable energy to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability. The system utilizes sensors to continuously monitor key environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and light intensity. An ESP32 microcontroller processes the collected data and transmits it to a cloud-based platform via Wi-Fi, enabling real-time monitoring and analysis. Automated control mechanisms are implemented to regulate irrigation and environmental conditions, ensuring optimal plant growth while minimizing resource wastage. The integration of solar energy provides a reliable and eco-friendly power source, reducing dependency on conventional electricity. The proposed system improves efficiency by reducing manual intervention, optimizing water usage, and maintaining stable greenhouse conditions. Experimental results demonstrate the system’s effectiveness in real-time monitoring and automation, making it suitable for small-scale and large-scale farming applications. This solution offers a cost-effective, scalable, and sustainable approach to modern agriculture, contributing to increased crop yield and resource conservation.
