Monitoring platform for PV plants and self-consumption systems  

Ingeteam has developed a new monitoring platform directed at all sizes of solar PV plants, as well as PV self-consumption systems. The INGECON SUN Monitor platform makes it possible to monitor domestic and industrial systems alike, with or without batteries. The INGECON SUN Monitor application presents the real-time data for generation, consumption, and energy storage if applicable. Users can view this information on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis. Furthermore, the INGECON SUN Monitor application gives details of all the energy flows in each time slot, so users have real-time information on which electricity supply is being used to power their homes, the self-consumption ratio achieved, and the final use of the solar energy, which can either be direct consumption, battery storage for subsequent consumption, or delivery to the public grid where permitted. The application has also been designed to monitor large-scale PV plants. In this case, the tool proves useful for providing information on all the generation data, both in real time and also for daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly figures and to view the gain obtained with this energy production. Likewise, the application provides remote information on the status of any possible alarm present at the plant, so the user can monitor this situation. Moreover, all this information is compiled in a report that is emailed to the user on a daily basis.
