Abstract
The smart homes are the need of emerging infrastructure in order to reduce the energy needs of society. Room heating is among the major source of energy consumption in such homes. Hence a setup is required in centrally controlled homes to manage the energy consumption. One such arrangement has been discussed in which several heaters in a single room and different rooms can be controlled along with a smart thermostat relay control algorithm so that energy is properly utilized. The controllers have been connected using Zigbee communication for the sake of simplicity and efficiency. The indoor and outdoor temperatures are monitored using appropriate sensors. Alongside, the energy savings and the heating duration in a typical Indian scenario is discussed.
