Challenge

This project was brought to us by Miron Efficiency and the primary challenge of the solar farm project encompasses not only accurately predicting solar production for efficient invoicing and operational management but also the crucial need for remotely monitoring and managing the site from the UK. Incorrect predictions can lead to penalties from the operator, and the requirement for real-time oversight from a distance introduces complexities such as managing the efficiency of solar panels over their guaranteed lifespan, dynamically controlling site access, and maintaining safety protocols. This necessitates precise weather data and a sophisticated monitoring system including CCTV to handle various operational scenarios effectively, like scheduling panel cleaning, managing detailed access controls, and responding promptly to detected anomalies. These technologies must be seamlessly integrated to ensure comprehensive and granular control from a remote location.

Solution

The solution incorporates comprehensive use of advanced technologies integrated with the Loxone App to address these challenges. A weather station provides solar radiation data to predict solar output and schedule maintenance like panel cleaning. Every string of solar panels is monitored through combiner boxes, with the data visualised in flow charts for annual efficiency comparisons, essential for warranty claims and ensuring the longevity of the panels. Keypad access with specific PIN codes linked to the type of work being conducted enables robust site security and operational control, with automated alerts and CCTV oversight to manage onsite safety effectively. Finally, the system facilitates seamless data extraction and transmission to the grid operator, ensuring all regulatory and operational data requirements are met efficiently.

We opted for the Loxone App because there was simply nothing else on the market that could offer the level of granularity and integration needed in one clean interface. The app's comprehensive control capabilities, combined with CCTV integration, allow us to manage every aspect of the solar farm from the UK with unprecedented precision and responsiveness.
