Solar Lighting Pole with Remote Monitoring

Abstract

The growing demand for sustainable energy solutions has driven the adoption of clean and efficient technologies, especially in areas where access to the electrical grid is limited. In this context, this project presents the development of a standalone lighting pole powered by solar energy, with remote monitoring capability via the Internet of Things (IoT). Using the ESP32 microcontroller, the system collects environmental data such as voltage, current, temperature, and luminosity, transmitting it in real time to the ThingSpeak platform, enabling a practical, economical, and environmentally responsible solution.
