The invention relates to the field of the Internet of things (IoT) and allows to remotely control the energy resource consumption parameters (electricity, cold and hot water, heat energy and gas) in the communal field. The controlled parameters include the amount of energy resources received from each source of resources, their quality (water, coolant or gas temperature, pressure in the water or gas pipeline, availability of power from the grid, peak voltage, RMS voltage, frequency deviation, distortion of the current waveform), as well as environmental parameters (temperature and composition of ambient air, air humidity, the smoke presence, opening and closing of doors and windows, the presence of moving objects, illumination, water leakage, gas leakage). The developed method and the system implementing it allow registering the value of each monitored parameter in real time mode at the moment this parameter is changed by a certain predefined value and automatically transfer this value to the Monitoring Center. Data accumulated in the Monitoring Center is Big Data containing detailed information on the quantity and quality of energy resources consumed, the state of the data collection system itself, and the behavior of people in the consumption of energy resources. These data can be used to develop recommendations for energy saving, changing consumers' behavior to save energy, as well as to monitor the operation of the system and the location of accidents and leaks.The invention can be used to create centralized automatic monitoring systems for energy resource consumption in areas of any size.
