Graph comparisons CC vs GPM vs ASC

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011 Monitoring No Comments

The following images are screen shots of the graphs from Current Cost, Google Powermeter & AS Control.

They are all for the 17th May 2011. I took the screen shots at around 10pm, so the totals for the Current Cost and Google Powermeter graphs aren’t finalised due to the “always” on current due to the Inverter’s EMC filter that I mentioned in this post >> Monitoring via Current Cost and Google Powermeter.

Solmetric SunEye 210 solar access and shade report

Monday, May 16th, 2011 Testing Equipment No Comments

At work I have access to a Solmetric SunEye™ 210 shade analysis tool.

This is lifted from the Solmetric website.

Professional Site Evaluation

The SunEye 210 is an integrated Shade Analysis Tool for solar site assessment. It includes a fisheye camera and a dedicated on-board processor to perform digital image processing and analysis to compute shading and solar access percentages. It includes an electronic compass and inclinometer enabled to measure roof pitch and azimuth.

My Current Solar Generation


The inverters show a sleeping load of ~74W when shut down. It's just the EMC filters fooling the Current Cost EnviR.
