Automation system hydroponic using smart solar power plant unit
Simon Siregar1, Marlindia Ike Sar2, Rakhmi Jauhari3.
Automation system hydroponic is one of the farming solution. There are several problems in
hydroponic that can be divided into two parts. First part is the hydroponic system. The
system needs to control and monitor temperature, pH and distribution of water. Second
part is the power supply, generally it run from conventional electrical energy and it should
continue to run all the time. Electrical energy needs is increasing from time to time. In this
research, there are two possible solutions to solve the problem. The first possible solution is
the automation for hydroponics system that would measure and control temperature, pH
and water level in water tank. The second possible solution is smart solar power plant unit
which function as primary power supply and will shift to conventional electrical energy if
there is no adequate energy to run the automation for hydroponics system. The smart solar
power plant unit monitor the intensity of light, voltage and electrical current between
battery and DC to AC converter and the voltage that produced from solar panel. The value
of temperature, pH and water level in water tank, intensity of light, electrical current and
voltage will be sent to a server by wireless communication. The result of this research is a
prototype of automation system hydroponic using smart solar power plant that can monitor
and control pH, temperature, water level, intensity of light, electrical current and voltage.
