Abstract: Demand response has become an effective method for energy saving and to reduce the energy cost. By adjusting the residential loads, it reacts quickly for the mismatches of supply and demand. In this paper, the Internet of Things (IoT) based Demand Response (Load scheduling method) methodology is proposed to mitigate the energy waste and tariff. Two different alarm provisions are made at the consumer side to indicate the normal and demand modes operated by the supplier. The consumer is provided with a controller that read the market signal and answers with consumer preferences. Whenever demand mode arises, the consumer is completely free to change the load setting; also the developed system will propose the load pattern. The demand mode will be given during peak hour and the tariff will be high at that time and normal mode will consist of the minimum tariff. The consumer may control their load through cloud-MQTT by giving a specific command or from the MQTT dashboard android app. Based on the tariff, the consumption profile could be reduced.
