Photovoltaic Management
System (PVMS)


1. PV Generation Monitoring

  • Real-time tracking of solar output (kW, kWh)
  • Inverter performance monitoring
  • Solar irradiation vs actual output

2. Energy Flow Management

  • Tracks flow between PV, battery, load, and grid
  • Visualizes self-consumption, export, import

3. Inverter & MPPT Control

  • Manages Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) efficiency
  • Ensures optimal inverter loading & performance

4. Battery Storage Management

  • Controls charging/discharging schedules
  • Optimizes use based on time-of-use tariffs or peak shaving
  • State of Charge (SoC) monitoring

5. Grid Interaction & Export Control

  • Limits export based on utility rules
  • Enables net metering or zero-export logic
  • Islanding control if integrated with backup systems

6. Load Matching & Smart Consumption

  • Schedules flexible loads to align with PV generation
  • Smart load shifting for higher self-consumption

7. Forecasting Module

  • Solar generation forecast (based on weather data)
  • Load forecasting to plan storage/discharge decisions

8. Performance Analytics & Alarms

  • KPI tracking (PR, CUF, daily yield)
  • Automatic fault alerts (e.g., low generation, inverter error, ismatch)

9. Energy Tariff Optimization

  • Simulates savings under different tariff schemes (e.g., peak/off-peak, FiT, NEM)
  • Real-time financial impact display

10. Asset Management & Maintenance

  • Tracks inverter, panel, battery health and maintenance schedules
  • Integrates with CMMS for proactive servicing

11. Carbon Offset & ESG Reporting

  • Calculates CO₂ avoided from PV use
  • Generates reports for ESG, CDP, GHG Protocol compliance

12. SCADA/BMS Integration

  • Interfaces with site SCADA, BMS, or facility EMS
  • Centralized data and control for hybrid systems (PV, grid, genset, battery)

Optional / Advanced Sub-Modules

Hybrid System Controller

  • Manages PV + diesel generator + battery coordination
  • Islanding and microgrid support

Virtual Power Plant (VPP)

  • Aggregates multiple PV systems for grid services
  • Supports demand response and ancillary services

AI Optimization Engine

  • Uses ML to fine-tune battery and load control for max ROI
  • Anomaly detection in PV performance

EV Charger Integration

  • Aligns EV charging schedules with solar generation
  • Tracks solar-powered EV mileage

Weather Data Integration

  • Integrates live weather data and forecasts to
  • improve solar production planning
