Abstract

This paper describes an intelligent system for monitoring photovoltaic plants, detecting thefts or malfunctions and optimizing energy production by algorithm to drive solar trackers. Sensing/processing board detects environmental parameters and calculates produced power/energy for monitoring efficiency while anti-theft system reveals any critical condition. Designed board controls biaxial trackers calculating sun position and following solar orbit to optimize energy production. Monitoring and anti-tampering systems communicate with PC or remote stations by wireless modules. Finally, wireless monitoring system of household facilities measures absorbed currents viewing consumption values on web-page. Depending on light/presence sensors, system can switch on/off monitored facilities obtaining energy savings.
