PV system lab electricity
• 9 *120 Wp = 1080 Wp• 30° • grid-connected• With data logger
PV system lab electricity
• Invertor Sunny boy (SMA)• Data logger: Heliograph
(imec)• serial communication with
PC
• Memory (20 a 30 days)
• Irradiance, DV voltage, DC current AC energy
• Manually download of the data
• Data = text file
New monitoring system
Requirements:
– Automatic, no user intervention needed– Data = visual information– Public– No PC necessary– Low energy consumption– Back-up data
New monitoring system

Self-made collector
• Italy 30000 m² since 1995 • co-operative (Verband Alternatieve Energie VAE)
• 2 collectors /Man/day
Belgium: start in 2006
500 m² in half year

Evaluation
Catholic Institute of Higher Education in South – West- FlandersBelgium
Self-made collector
• Goal: online evaluation• Measurements:
– Ambient temperature– T collector (in)– T collector (out)– T Boiler– Pump on/off
• Online (internet)• Visualisation• With little energy
Self-made collector
• System: – 16 solar panels (=22 m²) for a floor heating system and hot
water production
– Location: Torhout
– Boiler 1000 liter
New monitoring system
Self-made collector
How ?– IPC: chip with Ethernet and serial communication (energy
consumption 3 Watt)– Connection with internet– Storage on server (no data logger)
• Extra:– Controlling pump– Adjusting delta T – Logging working hours – Synchronisation with time server
