The launch of the accessories is aimed at speeding up installation times simplifying the setup of solar monitoring connections. SolarEdge has introduced its GSM Cellular Kit for wireless communication, which is ideal for locations without broadband infrastructure. Installers receive a GSM network card combined with a preinstalled SIM card covered by a standard 12-year hardware warranty and a 5 or 12-year data plan. The Kit can be used in combination with the company’s single-phase inverters, including its StorEdge solutions, to provide online battery monitoring, and the company’s revenue-grade inverters to provide an end-to-end revenue metering solution.
SolarEdge has also launched a new electricity meter to offer system owners more insight into energy usage with consumption monitoring. The SolarEdge electricity meter supports consumption monitoring, on-grid applications, and grid export limitations. Information from the meter can be displayed on SolarEdge’s cloud-based monitoring platform and smartphone applications. The electricity meter can be used with any SolarEdge single phase inverter solution and is compatible with StorEdge inverters for on-grid storage applications.
“SolarEdge is proud to take a leadership position in continuing to advance insights into PV production, consumption, and storage by offering innovative and cost-effective solutions, such as our new electricity meter and GSM Cellular Kit” said Peter Mathews, North America General Manager for SolarEdge.
