2. Introduction
• The Internet of Things is a
transformative development.
Technologies that could allow
literally billions of everyday
objects to communicate with
each other over the Internet
have enormous potential to
change all of our lives.
• Internet of Things describes a world where things which can
be devices or sensors, are both smart and connected, with the
ability to collect and share data to become powerful tools for
understanding complexity and responding to it effectively

3. The Eco System
• The Internet of Things is made
up of hardware and software
technologies.
• The hardware consists of the
connected devices, which
range from simple sensors to
smartphones and wearable
devices, and the networks that
link them, such as 4G Long-
Term Evolution, WiFi and
Bluetooth.
• Software components include
data storage platforms and
analytics programmes that
present information to users

4. Trends
• The first significant trend is the availability of cheaper
semiconductors. Collecting complex and valuable data would not
be possible without economically viable sensors, controllers and
transmitters.
• The second trend is wider network availability and increased
capacity. Fixed line, Wi-Fi and mobile networks have expanded to
meet the demands of the 2.3 billion Internet subscribers around
the world.
• The third trend is in data management and storage. For many
years, data servers took up a large proportion of IT budgets.
• The fourth trend is the development of ever more powerful
analytics and applications. New techniques and technologies have
been developed to exploit the data bounty that has been created
by the three preceding trends.

5. Interest Areas
Using IoT to Make Energy More Renewable
The Smart Grids
5Internet of Things
• Current trends in energy supply and use are patently unsustainable –
economically, environmentally and socially.
• A smart grid is an electricity network that uses digital and other
advanced technologies to monitor and manage the transport of
electricity from all generation sources to meet the varying electricity
demands of end-users
• The development of smart grids is essential if the global community is
to achieve shared goals for energy security, economic development
and climate change mitigation.
• Smart grids enable increased demand response and energy efficiency,
integration of variable renewable energy resources and electric
services, while reducing peak demand and stabilizing the electricity
system.

Innovation
• While advanced countries have well-
developed modern grids, many others
have grids that do not operate
consistently over a 24-hour period.
• Developing countries are often
categorized by high growth in electricity
demand, hence Cost matters lot.
• Smart grids can play an important role
in the deployment of new electricity
infrastructure in developing countries
by enabling more efficient operation
and lower costs.
• This Technique of Small remote systems – not connected to a
centralized electricity infrastructure and initially employed as a cost-
effective approach to rural electrification – could later be connected
easily to a national or regional grid infrastructure by employing
Internet of Things
