How do I know if my solar panels are working?
Many solar system owners look at their electric bill to determine if their system is producing properly. Unfortunately, this is not an accurate way to gather information.
Utility bills can be confusing because they only show how much electricity your system supplied to the electric grid and not the total power your system produced. Utility bills also show how much electricity you pulled from the power grid but not your total energy consumption. This is because your home or business first consumes the solar power (behind the meter) and then pulls from the grid as needed.
Monitoring provides a wealth of useful information on how your solar panels and inverters are functioning. Most monitoring systems can provide panel-level, historical, and real-time data. This data can also help with troubleshooting and pinpointing needed repairs.
