Solar & Off-Grid

Intelligent Solar Operations

Monitor solar farms, off-grid installations, and battery storage with real-time inverter data, AI-powered performance analysis, and satellite connectivity for remote sites where grid infrastructure doesn't exist.

Capabilities

End-to-end monitoring for solar and off-grid energy systems, from individual string-level data to fleet-wide performance analytics.

01

Inverter & String Monitoring

Real-time performance data from inverters via Victron MPPT integration. String-level current and voltage tracking with automatic underperformance detection. Identify shading, soiling, and degradation at the string level before it impacts yield.

02

Battery Storage Management

Monitor state of charge, temperature, cycle count, and degradation trends via JBD BMS integration. Predictive replacement timelines based on actual usage patterns, not manufacturer estimates.

03

Off-Grid Site Reliability

Solar-powered edge devices with 56-day battery life. LoRaWAN sensor networks combined with cellular and Starlink satellite connectivity. Zero grid infrastructure required, deploy monitoring anywhere on the planet.

04

Performance Analytics

Track energy yield, performance ratio, capacity factor, and degradation rates across your entire fleet. 14-parameter weather overlays for production correlation, understand exactly why a site underperformed.

What a solar site looks like in Powoflow

A real site, not a mockup. Production now, energy today, and forecast against actual for the last six weeks.

A site in Powoflow showing 2.25 kW producing now, 12.3 kWh today across 15 inverters, a bar chart of daily energy production, and forecast against actual output over six weeks

The array is an asset, not a dashboard

It sits in the hierarchy with its inverters beneath it, so the work orders, checklists, downtime and attachments on those tabs belong to this site rather than to a separate maintenance system.

Forecast against actual

Predicted output next to what the array really produced, day by day. A panel that is soiled, shaded or failing shows up as a gap that persists, which is a different signal from a cloudy week.

Everything else on the same record

Heating zones and cameras on the same site, because an off-grid installation is rarely only panels. One asset, one page, whatever happens to be attached to it.

Hardware for Solar

Purpose-built edge devices designed for solar and off-grid deployments, solar powered, weatherproof, and built for years of unattended operation.

KA1 Cellular Tracker

56-day battery life on a single charge. Built-in GNSS positioning and BME68x environmental sensors (temperature, humidity, pressure, gas). Cellular connectivity with automatic fallback and store-and-forward.

KA1-CO BLE Bridge

Bluetooth Low Energy bridge for Victron MPPT charge controllers and JBD BMS battery management systems. Collects inverter and battery telemetry and relays via cellular uplink.

S21XX LoRaWAN Sensors

Long-range wireless sensors for soil moisture, temperature, and light intensity. LoRaWAN connectivity covers kilometers of range, ideal for sprawling solar farms and agricultural solar installations.
