Solar Metering Solution
Real-time solar generation visibility for smarter energy decisions
GridStar’s Solar Metering Solution helps solar plant owners and operators monitor generation, compare output against expectations, and act faster when performance drops.
Solution Flow
Overview
Built for better monitoring of solar generation and plant performance
The solution captures solar generation data automatically, sends it to a central platform, and makes it available through dashboards, reports, and alerts.
Solar Meter Data Capture
Track solar generation automatically with interval-based data capture for reliable visibility into plant performance.
Communication Layer
Meter readings are transmitted automatically to the central platform without waiting for manual collection.
Generation Monitoring Platform
View daily generation, export and import data, trends, and alarms in one connected monitoring environment.
Web & Mobile Access
Owners and operators can view present power, today’s generation, total generation, and alerts from anywhere.
How It Works
From solar meter reading to actionable generation insights
A simple digital workflow helps plant owners and operators monitor generation in near real time and take action when output drops.
01
Capture
The solar meter records how much energy the plant generates and when that generation happens.
02
Transmit
AMI communication sends readings automatically at fixed intervals to the platform.
03
Monitor
The system displays generation, export and import, daily trends, and alarms in one place.
04
Act
Owners can compare expected output with actual performance and respond quickly to under-performance.
Key benefits
Better visibility into generation, efficiency, and plant performance
Faster Visibility
No need to wait for monthly readings to understand whether the plant is generating efficiently.
Early Performance Alerts
Unexpected drops in generation can be spotted much sooner through alerts and live trends.
Better Output Tracking
Track current generation, today’s output, total generation, and historical trends with ease.
Improved Operational Response
Teams can investigate low generation, inverter issues, or abnormal output more quickly.
Useful for Billing & Settlement
Recorded generation data supports billing, settlement, and proof of energy produced.
Anywhere Access
Web and mobile access makes it easy for plant owners and operators to stay informed.
