Abstract

The goal of this project is to design and implement a reliable, manufacturable device to measure, display, and limit kilowatt-hour usage of a home or other facility. This device was requested by our client, Matt Walsh, with the intent of facilitating the sharing of excess power from an existing solar power system in Mahadaga, Burkina Faso. In addition to allowing equitable sharing of power, this device also promotes energy awareness and conservation. Three such devices have been successfully installed in Mahadaga, Burkina Faso.
