Smart Energy Meter with ESP32 CYD V2 Board
Welcome to my project on creating a Smart Energy Meter using the ESP32 CYD V2 board AKA ESP32-2432S028R. This project is designed to leverage the flexibility of ESPHome to build an energy monitoring solution that is cost-effective, reliable, and easy to integrate into smart home systems.
Overview
The goal of this project is to create a DIY smart energy meter that can:
- Monitor power usage in real-time.
- Provide integration with home automation platforms like Home Assistant.
- Be accessible and modifiable to suit various use cases and environments.
This project is open-source, and I encourage everyone to contribute, suggest improvements, or even fork it for your own specific needs. You can find all the project details, including the firmware and setup instructions, on my GitHub repository:
