The increasing complexity and inefficiency of traditional multi-wire power distribution systems are a need to impose new architecturally paradigmatic approaches. In the current research paper, the conceptual design of a single-wire, IoT-based intelligent energy network has been outlined in detail combining power delivery with real-time monitoring and adaptive control features. The proposed architecture will be based on the Internet of Things (IoT), edge computing, and cloud-based analytics to develop a single framework of efficient energy distribution, visualization, and management. The viability of simplified conductor systems designed with intelligent sensor networks is illustrated through mathematical modeling, theoretical analysis and through a simulation-based evaluation. The study tackles the basic issues of power transmission efficiency, system stability, and scalability as well as provides a base on the future deployment of smart grids. Some of its key contributions include a new system architecture, mathematical modeling of single-wire transmission, strategies of integrating the IoT, and a complete visualization framework. Findings point to good prospects of use in smart cities, microgrids and rural electrification situations, with major consequences of sustainable development of energy infrastructure.
