Abstract

Conserving energy efficiently is becoming a challenging problem around the globe, specifically in developing countries. One main reason is the lack of awareness of end users (or consumers) about the usage of new and emerging techniques and technologies [e.g., Internet-of-things (IoT)], which can be helpful in mitigating the aforementioned problem. This paper will present the state-of-the-art technologies that have been proposed in the literature related to IoT-enabled solutions for energy conservation. This paper also highlights the details of infrastructure and communication models used in the literature for implementing such IoT-enabled applications. Based on the existing literature, this paper mentions areas that need more attention and can serve as open issues or gaps for future research. In the end, this paper presents our proposed model (i.e., IoT-enabled smart socket), which can be useful to serve the needs of consumers from developing countries like Pakistan.
