Construcción de un equipo medidor de la huella de carbono para edificaciones por consumo eléctrico en tiempo real con monitoreo remoto

Abstract

In recent decades, the attention of the entire world population, especially that of scientists and researchers, has been focused on the important climatic changes that have occurred, a situation that has led to the search for alternatives that minimize the processes of gas generation greenhouse effect that these climate changes are causing. During the development of this document, we seek to explain in detail the procedures followed for the construction of a carbon footprint measuring device for buildings in real time for energy consumption, in order to develop a tool that supports the different education processes, whose topic of interest corresponds to the rational use of energy, in order to minimize the carbon footprint and therefore the production of greenhouse gases represented by electricity generation. For the creation of this device, the carbon footprint is taken as indirect measurement, since it is obtained through the relationship of voltage and current supplied to the building or instrument under evaluation, which is why these two signals are sensed of externally, the former through the use of resistive transformers and dividers, the latter through the use of a HALL effect current sensor.
