Abstract

: Solar monitoring system is getting demand all over the world due to many companies use solar energy in daily operation. The main objective of this project is to apply a wireless system to monitor the performance of solar panels and get accurate real-time data. However, lack of technology and inaccurate real-time data caused monitoring inconsistent and difficult. Therefore, the wireless system used to monitor the performance of solar panels is very effective anywhere and anytime. The sensor connected to Wi-Fi using Arduino help to get solar parameter more efficient. It is easy to configure because it has a built-in Wi-Fi network. It also uses the Ubidots platform to read and stored all the data. Voltage, current, temperature, and light intensity sensors obtain and recorded all the data accurately from time to time. As a result, the parameter reading is easier and accurate. The data can be read wirelessly regardless of time and place.
