 ABSTRACT:

Electricity consumers are often faced with the problem of inaccuracy and delay in
monthly billing due to some drawbacks. Thus, it is essential to have an efficient
system for such purposes via electronic platform with consideration to proximity. The
proposed system automates the conventional process of paying electricity bill by
visiting the Electricity Board which is tiresome and time consuming. It is also
designed to automate the electricity bill calculation and payment for user
convenience. The system is developed with Java swings as the base programming
language which can be used to develop websites, web applications and web
services. The Microsoft Structured Query Language (SQL) server is also used for
creating back-end database. The system would be having two logins: the
administrative and user login. The administrator can view the user's account details
and can add the customer's information of consuming units of energy of the current
month in their account. The Admin must feed the system with the electricity usage
data into respective user’s account. The system then calculates the electricity bill for
every user and updates the information into their account every month. Users can
then view their electricity bill and pay before the month end.

EXISTING SYSTEM:

The existing electricity billing system relies heavily on manual processes for data entry, bill
generation, and payment processing. Customers receive paper bills and must visit designated
centers to make payments in person. Administrative staff manually update customer records,
manage billing data, and resolve disputes. Limited automation leads to inefficiencies, errors,
and delays in billing cycles. Upgrading to a modernized, computerized system would streamline
operations, improve accuracy, and enhance customer convenience.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:

o This project system excludes the need of maintaining paper electricity bill as all the
electricity bill records are managed electronically.
o Administrator doesn't have to keep a manual track of the users. The system automatically
calculates fine.
o Users don't have to visit to the office for bill payment.
o There is no need of delivery boy for delivery bills to user's place.
o Thus, it saves human efforts and resources.

ADVANTAGES:

The proposed electricity billing system automates processes, reducing manual effort and errors.
It enhances user convenience with online bill viewing and payment options. Time savings for
both users and staff are realized through streamlined operations. Overall, the system improves
efficiency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction.
