Project Title

Crowdsourcing Energy as a Service

Project Description

Energy sharing service, also known as Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS), is defined as the wireless transfer of energy among IoT devices. An energy provider is a device that can share energy. An energy consumer is also a device that requests energy. Energy may be harvested through wearables e.g., smart textile or smart shoes. The project focuses on simulating the wireless energy sharing process on real devices and generates an energy sharing dataset that consists of energy services, requests, and an energy harvesting model.
