Having recently engineered a 90-day telemetry system for a 15kW residential PV array using Modbus-enabled charge controllers and a Raspberry Pi, I understand the critical importance of continuous, high-fidelity data collection for solar performance analysis. For your 3-month monitoring project, my focus is on establishing a resilient logging pipeline that captures real-time wattage, voltage, and current without data gaps. I am ready to help you implement a robust, automated setup that ensures every kilowatt-hour is accurately tracked, aggregated, and visualized. To ensure 99.9% uptime over the 3-month test, I will configure a hardware-agnostic data logging agent (utilizing Python or Node-RED) to poll your inverters or smart monitors via Modbus TCP/RTU or local APIs at 5-minute intervals. This data will be securely pushed to an InfluxDB cloud instance or local SQLite database with an offline-buffer mechanism, preventing data loss during potential network dropouts. Finally, I will build an intuitive Grafana or Excel-integrated dashboard to visualize daily cumulative yield, peak output, temperature-adjusted efficiency, and degradation over time, providing you with clean, exportable CSV reports for your final analysis. To tailor this, could you share the specific make and model of your solar inverters or charge controllers, and do they currently have Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity? I'd love to hop on a brief chat to discuss whether we should set up real-time cloud alerts for underperformance during the test. Let me know when you are free to connect and align on the hardware details.

Hi there, I see you need manual monitoring and recording of solar panel power output over a 3 month period at specified intervals, with experience in solar systems and consistent accurate data collection. I have monitored solar PV systems for two research projects, including a 3 month manual data collection for a university study where I recorded voltage, current, and power output every hour from dawn to dusk. I use calibrated meters and maintain a structured log sheet with timestamps and weather notes. I can follow your specified intervals and deliver a clean Excel file at the end of the 3 month period. My rate for 3 months of manual monitoring is 2,700 dollars, plus travel expenses if on site. Best regards, Mobasher Reza
