The sun is one of the oldest and most powerful energy sources in human history. With the advancement of technology, solar energy systems have become one of the most sustainable and environmentally friendly methods of electricity generation. These systems, which can be used in both residential settings and large industrial facilities, offer long-term benefits such as low cost and energy independence.
How Do Solar Energy Systems Work?
Solar energy systems basically consist of photovoltaic (PV) panels, an inverter, a battery (optional), and data monitoring systems.
PV Panels Convert sunlight directly into DC electricity.
Inverter Converts DC energy into usable AC power.
Battery (Optional) Stores excess energy for use at night or during cloudy weather.
Data Monitoring Systems Enable remote monitoring of production, consumption, and efficiency.
What Are the Advantages?
Energy production without carbon emissions
Long-lasting systems with low maintenance costs
Opportunity to benefit from government incentives
Significant reduction in electricity bills
Ease of remote monitoring and control
Infrastructures Compatible with InHand Products in Solar Energy Systems
Since solar power plants are spread across wide open areas and are often established in remote regions far from city centers, communication and data collection infrastructure becomes critically important. This is where InHand’s industrial solutions come into play:
IR302 Industrial Cellular Router
Ensures the transmission of information from inverters or data logger devices at the solar power plant to the SCADA center.
4G LTE connectivity with redundant SIM card support
Support for industrial protocols such as IEC104, Modbus, MQTT
