SoPeM
SoPeM is a smart performance monitoring sensor that wirelessly tracks power, current, and voltage of each solar panel without cables, increasing ROI through panel‑based efficiency.
Avoid misleading string averages. SoPeM watches each panel individually for pinpoint fault detection.
Eliminates battery swaps. SoPeM harvests energy directly from its mounted panel, matching the plant’s lifetime. Plug‑and‑play.
Streams voltage, current, and power data over Wi‑Fi to your SCADA system, removing costly cabling.
Detects panels deviating from string averages in milliseconds, flagging shading or soiling losses instantly.
Averages Lie
Conventional string monitoring presents a single average for an entire array, masking a single faulty panel’s impact. This silent profit killer can go unnoticed for months.
Time & Cost Lost
Finding the one underperforming panel in a large solar field requires days of on‑site testing and huge labor costs.
Uninterrupted Performance
SoPeM integrates without planning – simply snap onto a panel, no cables, no extra hardware.
Digital Twin & Pinpoint Accuracy
SoPeM turns each panel into a smart, speaking entity. It reports real‑time energy output and highlights the exact faulty panel on your SCADA screen.
Zero Infrastructure Cost
Connects directly to the PV panel’s connector and harvests its power. Wireless communication eliminates cable trays, data lines, and battery swaps.
Data‑Powered Decision Engine
Beyond voltage, it streams current, power, and efficiency every 10 seconds to the cloud, turning reactive maintenance into predictive insight.
Secure every watt of production, maximize ROI.
System Advantages
Unlock Your Plant’s Real Potential
Detect faulty panels in seconds instead of days with SoPeM.
Frequently Asked Questions
String monitoring shows a single average for an entire array, hiding a single under‑performing panel. SoPeM monitors each panel individually, pinpointing faults instantly.
SoPeM‑V measures only panel voltage; SoPeM‑C measures voltage and also the current of the whole string. One SoPeM‑C per string is sufficient.
It’s completely battery‑less. It harvests the low‑power (0.58 W) directly from the attached panel, eliminating battery swaps or external power.
Sensors calculate each panel’s deviation from the string’s average. If a panel exceeds the configured deviation threshold, an alarm is sent to SCADA instantly.
Plug‑and‑play. Snap the unit onto a panel connector; no cables or extra hardware required.
