Here’s a breakdown of the hardware required to address each factor affecting solar energy

production:

1. Weather Conditions:

o Weather Sensors: Devices like pyranometers (to measure solar radiation), rain
gauges, and temperature sensors can provide data on weather conditions impacting
solar production.

2. Dust and Dirt:

o Cleaning Systems: Automated cleaning systems or robotic cleaners can help


maintain the cleanliness of the solar panels. Alternatively, you can use manual
cleaning tools if automation is not feasible.

3. Shading:

o Shading Analysis Tools: Tools like solar pathfinders or shading analysis software can
help assess shading impacts during the system design phase. For real-time
monitoring, cameras or sensors can detect shading issues.

4. Temperature:

o Temperature Sensors: Thermocouples or infrared thermometers can measure the


temperature of the solar panels. High-quality temperature sensors can provide data
on panel temperature affecting efficiency.

5. Panel Orientation and Tilt:

o Mounting Systems: Adjustable mounting systems allow for optimal panel orientation
and tilt. Fixed mounts or tracking systems (single or dual-axis) ensure panels are
positioned correctly relative to the sun.

6. System Age and Degradation:

o Performance Monitoring Hardware: Devices such as DC and AC energy meters can


track the performance of the panels over time. Regular performance checks help
identify degradation issues.

7. Inverter Issues:

o Inverters: Ensure the inverter is of high quality and regularly maintained. Monitoring
hardware can track inverter performance and detect malfunctions.

8. Electrical Connections:

o Multimeters and Electrical Testers: Tools for checking voltage, current, and
resistance in electrical connections. Regular inspections can help identify and rectify
connection issues.

9. Panel Quality:

o Quality Control Equipment: During installation, use tools to check the panel quality
and ensure they meet specifications. Post-installation, performance monitoring
equipment helps detect any issues related to panel quality.
10. System Size and Design:

o System Design Software: Use software tools for accurate system sizing and design.
These tools help ensure the system is designed to meet energy production needs.

For SOLARFIX, ensure that you have:

• Data Acquisition Hardware: To collect data from inverters, weather sensors, and other
equipment.

• Communication Hardware: To send data to your platform, including connectivity solutions


like modems or network interfaces.

• Server Infrastructure: To process and analyze the collected data, which can include cloud
servers or on-premises servers.
