Abstract
In this research, a platform is proposed based on optimization algorithms for Energy Management System for buildings. Building energy consumption can be minimized based on Artificial Intelligence and user requirements of power supplied therefore allowing comfort to consumer with efficient operation and functioning of the building. A prototype using SMART devices with a microcontroller is implemented and tested. It is observed with proper management of the operation of devices efficiency increases and therefore consumer costs reduced. A master controller communicating with multiple apartment controllers is proposed with massage passing interface.
