I presented our paper (https://doi.org/10.1109/ICASERT.2019.8934523) at the "1st International Conference on Advances in Science, Engineering and Robotics Technology (ICASERT)" conference in 2019. This paper proposes a smart IoT-based energy management system (EMS), which not only ensures transparency and credibility of energy data but also offers flexibility to the consumers by offering the facility of remotely controlling their home appliances.
