Included with every system

    Solar monitoring: see your system working, live

    Every InfraSol system is connected at installation. You get the app on your phone, and our engineers see the same readings. If something stops working, it shows up on a screen, not when the lights go off.

    What you see on your phone

    • Live power flow

      How much the panels are making, how full the battery is, whether the grid is on, and what the house or office is using, right now.

    • Daily totals and history

      What the panels produced today, what you used and what you bought from the grid, with charts by day and month to compare.

    • Alarms

      The inverter logs faults, a low battery and grid problems, and the app lists them with the time they happened.

    • From anywhere

      Readings arrive every five minutes. Open the app at home, at the office or abroad; family members can have the login too.

    Real screens from systems we installed

    Screenshots from three of our installations. Each app looks a little different, because each inverter maker has its own, but they all show the same things.

    Monitoring app on a phone showing solar 4.15 kW, battery 64%, grid 5.17 kW and consumption 3.74 kW for a Lekki office
    A Lekki office at 12:23 on a January afternoon. The panels are making 4.15 kW, the office is using 3.74 kW, and the battery, at 64%, is charging. Below: 9 kWh made so far today, 21.8 kWh used. See the project
    Monitoring app showing a house with panels making 7.235 kW, load 2.505 kW, battery 81% and grid voltage 185.6 V
    A Lekki home on a sunny day. The panels make 7.2 kW, the house uses 2.5 kW and the battery is at 81%. The grid reads 185.6 V, well under the 230 V it should be, and the app makes that plain. See the project
    Monitoring dashboard showing the grid at 0 V, panels at 1.96 kW, a full battery and the house drawing 2.12 kW
    An Abuja home during a power cut: the grid reads 0 V. The panels make 1.96 kW, the house draws 2.12 kW, and the full battery covers the difference. The tabs along the top hold the charts, analysis and alarm history. See the project

    What our engineers look for

    We see every system we install the way you do. These are the things that show up in the readings first.

    • Panels making less than they should. On a sunny day a clean array makes a predictable amount. When it falls short, the usual cause is dust: arrays we monitor that went months without cleaning lost 30–50% of their output. A wash brings it back.
    • A battery that stops filling. A battery that no longer reaches full, or empties faster in the evening than it used to, shows up in the daily charts long before the lights go off early.
    • Inverter alarms. Faults, overloads and grid problems are logged by the inverter. We see the same alarm list you do.
    • What your grid really supplies. Hours of supply, outages and voltage, measured rather than guessed. The same data from monitored sites is what our calculator and payback figures are checked against.

    How we use measured data to size systems and work out payback is on our methodology page.
