The concept of the new industry seeks not only to improve production processes, but also to bring solutions to environmental problems, in addition to reducing resource consumption, while maintaining high yields. This constant search for process optimization has been the main agent in the development of new technologies aimed at improving the performance of industrial production lines. Thus, this article proposes to raise some important concepts of Industry 4.0, and present the development of a remote IoT-based system that, through MQTT and Modbus protocols, will be responsible for monitoring the entire electrical network of an industrial plant, sending its data to the cloud, where it can be monitored and analyzed by the industry management sector or even by an artificial intelligence system, in a simple and effective way, in real time and from anywhere, in order to assist in decision-making focused on energy efficiency.
