Abstract The increasing demand for electricity in Ghana has led to concerns about energy conservation, to reduce the rising energy costs as well as the carbon emissions produced from energy generation. Popular energy conservation methods used in Ghana include turning off devices when not in use and using Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps in place of incandescent bulbs which consume more power. However, these methods do not have very significant results and are not very efficient. Additionally, the use of energy management systems or smart home systems is not very common in Ghana, although proven to be effective. Most approaches to smart energy management for households encompass sensorbased or application-based control of devices and monitoring of energy consumption. However, in this project, the development of a smart home operated using both sensor-based and application-based control is explored while monitoring energy consumption. This is achieved using Internet of Things.
