Smart energy management in a smart environment using a mobile device

The demand for energy is increasing due the growth of the population and industrial development. To improve the energy efficiency, consumers should be well informed of their energy consumption. Throughout the past few years, the welfare services have begun to develop new electrical energy meters; which are known the smart meters, they are is a efficient and performed interactivity between supplier and consumer. This article presents an approach in the pervasive systems domain, The suppliers would control the energy consumption in given houses by cell phones based on data sent by sensors installed on different corners of houses from the Arduino card based upon Zigbee protocol which will store the information and communicate with consumer via SMS. For this, programmable Arduino card via Arduino software and programmable Xbee module by X-CTU software is used.
