Smart Irrigation
A project developed for a State Power Utility Company, primarily to address losses worth billions of dollars, faced by the company due to wastage of power by the farmers as a consequence of subsidy given to the farmers by the government for irrigation. This project was executed in partnership with AutoGrid Systems Inc.
The subsidy offered caused careless and excessive running of irrigation pumps lead to not only wastage of power, but the water as well as damage to soil. The Betty smart plug was customised to regulate power supply, acquire, transmit and analyse power usage data, get information about misuse, wastages but also identify faulty pumps.
