SOLAR MONITORING SYSTEMS
TAKE THE GUESS WORK OUT OF MANAGING YOUR SOLAR
Take the guesswork out of tracking your solar performance
Solar monitoring systems are essential tools that help you track, analyze, and maximize your solar energy production. A good solar monitoring system will see that your solar panels perform at their best all year round. With our advanced solar monitoring systems, you can see how much electricity your panels are generating, how much energy you consume, and how efficiently your home or business is saving you money. Solar monitoring systems provide complete transparency, so you can identify inefficiencies before they become problems. Whether domestic or business, whether small or large, solar monitoring systems are the gateway to lasting energy savings and dependability.
How solar monitoring systems work
Solar monitoring systems accomplish this by collecting real-time data from your solar inverter and other equipment plugged into it. This information is shown on a dashboard where you can see precisely how your system operates during the day. By tracking production, usage, and export figures, you can detect instantly any drop in performance or issues with your solar panels in Melbourne.
Each monitoring unit is connected to your solar inverter, tracking the electricity from the panels to your home and the grid. Most of today’s available solar monitoring units use Wi-Fi or cellular connections, and you can view your energy data via an app or web portal. 365 Solar’s monitoring features enable you to view your power generation, consumption, and savings whenever, wherever you want.
In addition to this, they also provide you with automatic alerts whenever faults or performance slumps occur. In this way, you can take care of any problem at once before it results in lost efficiency or wasted energy.
Benefits of solar monitoring systems
A solar monitoring system does more than display figures on the screen—it allows you to make intelligent energy decisions.
- Maximise savings: See how much you are saving and optimise your energy usage for maximum efficiency.
- Track performance: See when your panels are producing the most power and adjust your lifestyle accordingly.
- Early fault detection: Recognise faults such as inverter faults or low output early on.
- Remote access: See your solar performance from your computer or mobile phone whenever you want
- Data-driven insights: Gain comprehensive reports on consumption, production, and export trends to plan future upgrades or battery installations.
Such features assist you in getting maximum return on investment while getting maximum life and efficiency out of your solar power system.
How to monitor performance using solar monitoring systems
Performance monitoring is easy and interactive. Once you connect your solar monitoring system, you can view all data through an intuitive dashboard.
- Daily energy reports: View your live solar generation, grid export, and home consumption.
- Performance comparisons: Compare real-time output to historical data to ensure consistent output.
- System alerts: Notified if a component is underperforming.
- Plan optimiser: Compare your active energy plan and be presented with recommendations for cheaper alternatives based on actual consumption history.
- Battery insights: Determine whether a battery storage system would increase your savings in a year.
With ongoing monitoring and detailed analysis, you’ll always know how your solar system is performing and where it can be improved for optimized efficiency.
Integrated vs standard solar monitoring systems
There are two solar monitoring systems offered by 365 Solar: Integrated and Classic.
Choose Integrated if:
- You’ve had a Fronius, Sungrow, or GoodWe inverter installed or plan to do so.
- You have Wi-Fi or ethernet connectivity.
- A consumption meter is strongly recommended
You need data intervals at 5 minutes and dynamic control with hybrid inverters or batteries.
Choose Classic if:
- You need any inverter type or special AC loads.
- You need 3G or 4G connectivity.
- You have specific site requirements
You need real-time 5 seconds data and additional sub-circuit monitoring.
Both systems provide detailed, real-time data on your solar performance. The right choice depends on your data and installation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about solar monitoring systems
You can monitor your solar system with a solar monitoring device attached to your inverter. It provides real-time data on energy generated, used, and exported, accessible through an app or web interface.
A solar monitoring device tracks your solar system’s performance by keeping tabs on how much energy your panels generate and how much you consume. It identifies faults early on and optimizes efficiency.
A PV monitoring system is also called a solar monitoring system. It is focused on photovoltaic (PV) panels, and it provides you with information about energy production, system status, and output performance.
Yes. While most inverters display basic information, a dedicated monitoring system provides you with greater insights, fault indication, and detailed consumption monitoring.
Yes. By understanding your consumption and production patterns, you can change when you consume power, optimize feed-in rates, and select better energy plans.
