Dedication

Dedicated to our beloved parents & family for their love, endless support, encouragement and to

all those, whose prayers always pave the way to success for us.”

Acknowledgements

All praises are for Allah Almighty and Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) for giving

us knowledge, power and strength to accomplish this task.

Many people have helped me to contribute a little bit to build me up as a researcher and more

imperative as a human. Here, I wish to express my gratitude for their help.

We would also like to express our gratitude towards our Teacher mam Toba, her patience,

understanding, and expertise added considerably to our project experience. We have learned a lot

from this experience which hopefully will be a great help in our future.

Last but not the least; this is also the time to thank our families for all the support, love, and

encouragement they provided to make the best of this experience. It wouldn’t have been possible

without their support and motivation. We would also like to thank all our friends who have

contributed to this work by being always there whenever we needed them the most. A special

thanks goes to Faraz, Zarar and Hamza.

Chapter 1 Introduction

Our final year project is based on the information system of a power station. A power

Station, also referred to as a power plant and sometimes generating station or generating

Plant, is an industrial facility for the generation of electric power. Power stations are

Generally connected to an electrical grid. This Information System provides relevant

Information that makes energy performance visible to various levels of an organization,

Enabling individuals and departments to plan, make decisions and take effective action to

Manage energy. The government has given power consumers the excess information regarding

their billing and power supply situation in the area .Through this software, the users are able to

view planned load shedding schedule and actual load-shedding. The users are able to view

billing information and get duplicate bills. The users are able to get estimated bills through bill

estimators by just entering consumed units. The users can know about the facility of net metering

at their respective feeder by just entering a reference number. Consumers can get updates about

billing, net metering and feeder wise information about supply of electricity. It would also serve

as a bill calculator. This would also help to counter propaganda by elements with vested interests

about quantum and instances of load-shedding in different areas of the country. It would provide

information about all the distribution companies and any consumer can have access to it by

entering his consumer number. While it doesn’t follow Google’s guidelines for modern design,

the UI is functional and the software itself is quite quick. Opening up, you see three options to

check the load shedding schedule, billing information and calculate bills. To check your load

shedding schedule, simply put in the correct reference number. You’ll get details like your name,

address, feeder and grid as well as an hour by hour breakdown of the load shedding schedule,

there is also an option to generate a graph of the schedule. To check the billing information, put

in your reference number and it’ll show you all bill details including a six month history. You

can also generate a duplicate bill, but for that you’re redirected to a browser. Overall, the

software is very simplistic. It’s a nice first step and in the future, we’d like to see more detailed

options like whether a particular bill has been paid or not, load shedding schedule based on area

and cities as well as options to pay the bill within the app itself through partnership with Mobile

payment solutions. A detailed bill estimator would also be a welcome addition

1.1. Overall Description

1.1.1. Objectives

● To design the Load shedding schedule.

● To show Billing information.

● Net metering.

● To calculate the bill using their unit.

● To pay the bill easy from home.

● To design a Complaint box and easily connect people.

● To provide the best Customer service to people.

● To provide hardware and software based support to people.

● To give old bills by reference number. In case you lost your bill you can print out a new

one.

1.1.2. Problem Description

The customer care department issued a complaint regarding the outdated system they have used

for the past 5 months which results in frequent bugs occurring while using the user interface of

the software system. The System delay while trying to gain useful information of the customer

proved flaws that have occurred in the servers. The circumstances are quite clear that the

inability of any of the customer care systems to provide services to our users whether that is

fixing their current device hardware and software or providing new devices has been proved to

be a problem for the customer care staff. The main problem is consumers lost their old bills and

this is the most important issue. In its current state, it’s nothing more than a calculator and its

usefulness is limited since consumers most likely won’t know the number of units they use each

month.

1.1.3. Methodology

The Problem occurred in the server part of the system .Our first objective would be for the IT

department to find the solution for the server problem so the data of the customer should come

back online. The Bill Estimator features options for domestic and commercial billing, and one-

phase and three-phase meters. Put in the number of units in use and if there are any applicable

exemptions to get a bill estimate with a breakdown. In its current state, it’s nothing more than a

calculator and its usefulness is limited since consumers most likely won’t know the number of

units they use each month. A better approach would have been to provide a detailed

questionnaire with options for number of lights, fans and common appliances. We hope this

feature is developed in the immediate future. One neat thing about this software is that once you

3: The IT department will work on the functioning of the servers at the power station

technologies headquarters; the total quantity of these server units are 50.

4: The IT department has issued an order of 10 server units each costing a 1000 dollars along

with an update to the data centers.

Cost: 50,000 dollars.

1.2. External Interface Requirements

1.2.1. User Interfaces

It must be connected with the network, and the user can see the home page efficiently. Opening

up, you see three options to check the load shedding schedule, billing information and calculate

bills

Load shedding Schedule:

To check your load shedding schedule, simply put in the correct reference number.

You’ll get details like your name, address, feeder and grid as well as an hour by hour

breakdown of the load shedding schedule, there is also an option to generate a graph of

the schedule.

Getting a Bill Estimate :

The Bill Estimator features options for domestic and commercial billing, and one-phase and

three-phase meters. Put in the number of units. If there are any applicable exemptions to get a

bill estimate with a breakdown.
