Design and implementation of an AI-based & IoT-enabled Home Energy Management System: A case study in Benguerir — Morocco

Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) are of great importance today and have attracted a great deal of interest from both, academic researchers, and industrial engineers. These systems are considered as the intersection point between the smart grid and the smart home. Indeed, they can communicate wi...
