Abstract

In the era of sustainable energy, photovoltaic systems have become an increasingly necessary and popular solution due to their ability to generate clean and renewable energy. This paper presents a significant innovation in the monitoring of these systems, specifically a 3.4 kWp photovoltaic system installed on the terrace of building 1 of the Faculty of Mathematical, Physical and Chemical Sciences. The main objective was to design an efficient control system that allows the accurate collection of voltage, current and power data from the PV system. To achieve this, the Oxley Solar Pro mobile application was used, an advanced tool that facilitates real-time monitoring of various system parameters. As a result of this implementation, an automated system was obtained that not only monitors power generation, but also continuously monitors voltage and current. This innovation not only improves the efficiency of the PV system, but also provides crucial data for system maintenance and optimization, contributing significantly to energy sustainability.
