Using GPT to Analyze IAMMETER Cloud Energy Data

πŸ“˜ Introduction

This tutorial demonstrates how to connect your IAMMETER Cloud account to ChatGPT (or the IAMMETER Assistant), retrieve your smart energy meter data via IAMMETER’s open API, and automatically generate an AI-powered energy optimization report.

It works for all IAMMETER products, including:


🧩 Step 1 β€” Preparation

1️⃣ Log in to IAMMETER Cloud

πŸ‘‰ https://www.iammeter.com/login

2️⃣ Get Your API Token

  1. After logging in, click your profile icon (top-right corner)

  2. Choose β€œSettings->Token”

  3. Copy your token β€” it looks like this (example only):

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    

3️⃣ Connect to GPT

In ChatGPT (or IAMMETER Assistant), type:

My IAMMETER API Token is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

GPT will connect to your IAMMETER Cloud account and list all available sites and meters.


βš™οΈ Step 2 β€” Retrieve Site and Meter Information

GPT will return an overview like this:

Site Name Type Real-Time Power Monthly Energy PV Enabled
Home Energy Monitor Single phase 2400 W 272 kWh No
Solar PV System PV –870 W 211 kWh βœ… Yes

πŸ”Ž Step 3 β€” Select a Site to Analyze

Tell GPT:

I want to analyze the Home Energy Monitor site

GPT will ask for your meter serial number (SN). You can find it in IAMMETER Cloud β†’ Device List, for example:

70B3D5XXXXXX

πŸ“Š Step 4 β€” Run the Power Analysis

GPT will call the official IAMMETER Cloud API endpoint: πŸ‘‰ System API Documentation

Example:

GetPowerAnalysis(sn="70B3D5XXXXXX", startTime="2025-11-21", endTime="2025-11-28")

Example result:

Metric Value
Average Power 497.2 W
Maximum Power 5598 W
Minimum Power 64 W
Average Daytime Power 480.8 W

🌱 Step 5 β€” Example AI Energy Optimization Report

Below is an example GPT-generated energy efficiency report based on IAMMETER Cloud data.

⚑ Household Energy Insights

  • Average load β‰ˆ 500 W
  • Higher night-time load β€” likely from water heater or air conditioner
  • Peak load up to 5.6 kW β€” short high-consumption events detected

πŸ’‘ Optimization Suggestions

Category Recommendation Potential Savings
Standby Power Turn off idle plugs with smart sockets ~8–10%
Water Heater Control Schedule operation at off-peak or solar hours ~10–15%
Peak Load Management Avoid running multiple heavy devices at once ~5–8%

Total saving potential: β‰ˆ 20–25% (β‰ˆ 1,700 kWh/year, β‰ˆ $120–150 USD)


🧠 Step 6 β€” Optional Smart Control Integration

You can combine IAMMETER data + AI insights for automated control using open platforms:

Platform Description
🏠 Home Assistant Real-time control via MQTT integration
🧩 Node-RED Build smart logic flows (e.g., cut power above 3 kW)
☁️ ThingsBoard Create dashboards and forecast trends
πŸ”Œ WPC3700 Wi-Fi Power Controller Use PV surplus energy for heating control

🏁 Step 7 β€” Summary

Step Action GPT Capability
1 Obtain API Token Authenticate user
2 Connect to IAMMETER Cloud List sites and meters
3 Provide Meter SN Identify device
4 Run Power Analysis Retrieve power data
5 Generate Report AI-based energy insights
6 (Optional) Integrate Control Enable automation

πŸ“Ž Example Data Source

  • IAMMETER Cloud account (demo user)
  • Site: Home Energy Monitor
  • Meter SN: 70B3D5XXXXXX
  • Date Range: 2025-11-21 β†’ 2025-11-28

βœ… Benefits of IAMMETER + GPT Integration

  • Zero-code AI energy analytics
  • Instant optimization reports for homeowners
  • Seamless connection between IoT metering and AI decision-making
