Solar PV Monitoring Solution
Real-time weather, irradiance and PV module temperature monitoring for solar power plants and distributed PV projects.
Environmental Monitoring for PV Power Generation
Solar PV monitoring helps operators understand real site conditions that affect power generation, including solar irradiance, module temperature, ambient weather and wind conditions.
Throvin provides PV weather stations, solar radiation sensors, wind sensors, temperature and humidity sensors, radiation shields and data loggers for solar power plant monitoring and distributed PV projects.
How the PV Monitoring System Works
A solar PV monitoring system usually includes field sensors, data acquisition devices, communication modules, cloud or local platforms, and PV operation analysis.
Field Layer
PV sensors measure solar irradiance, module temperature, wind, ambient temperature, humidity and rainfall.
Data Acquisition
Data loggers collect signals such as RS485 Modbus, analog output or pulse input from field sensors.
Communication
Monitoring data can be transmitted through LoRaWAN, 4G LTE, Ethernet, gateway or customer systems.
PV Analysis
Data supports irradiance trend analysis, module temperature tracking, alarms and performance evaluation.
Parameters That Can Be Monitored
Solar PV projects require accurate environmental data to support power generation analysis, operation management and site safety.
Solar Irradiance
Measures solar radiation intensity for PV output analysis and solar resource evaluation.
PV Module Temperature
Tracks panel surface temperature to support temperature loss and abnormal heating analysis.
Wind Speed & Direction
Monitors wind conditions for site safety, structural risk and environmental evaluation.
Ambient Temperature
Measures surrounding air temperature for PV performance comparison and site condition analysis.
Humidity & Pressure
Supports complete meteorological monitoring for PV plant environment and operation records.
Rainfall
Provides rainfall data for outdoor PV site maintenance, weather records and operation planning.
