Context of use: Photovoltaic (PV) solar energy

Why some integrators and installers of PV systems have chosen a 100% wireless solution?

Ideal for use in solar power plants.

To monitor real-time data regarding the production of electricity.

To optimise the operation and maintenance.

Success story – Overview

Inverters in the technical room (SMA Solar)

PV panels on the roof of the barn

Application Prodution of solar energy in a farm near Nantes, France.

Inverters are located in the technical room which is located in one corner of the barn.

Success story – Benefits

A 300 m long trench between the PV panels and the inverters has been avoided.

No need to request to local authorities to close the road during the works.

The 2 modems have been installed in 10 minutes only: 1 unit connected to the RS485 bus of the inverters in the technical room,

1 unit connected to the data logger in the farmer’s house.

The farmer can have access to data of his PV station through internet.
