EFFICIENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT IN FERRY CABINS VIA LORA WIRELESS TELEMETRY
Angkasa Hasan , Department of Marine Electrical Engineering, Politeknik Perkapalan Negeri Surabaya (Ppns), IndonesiaAbstract
Efficient energy management on ferry ships is critical to reducing operational costs and promoting sustainability. This study introduces a LoRa-based wireless telemetry system for real-time monitoring of electronic equipment loads in ferry passenger cabins. The system leverages LoRa’s long-range, low-power communication capabilities to collect and transmit energy usage data, enabling precise tracking and management of electrical loads. Through field testing, the proposed system demonstrated reliability, scalability, and energy efficiency. The implementation of this technology allows for enhanced operational insights, reduced energy waste, and improved onboard energy efficiency. This approach provides a cost-effective solution for modernizing energy management in maritime transportation.
