Smart Energy with Pylon Data

Sustainability and energy efficiency are on everyone’s lips. An increasing number of companies and individuals are switching to photovoltaic self-consumption, i.e. the individual production of electricity for their own self-consumption.
This is why the monitoring of energy consumption and production plays a crucial role. Increasingly so. And this is where I would like to highlight the work of Pylon Data, innovative photovoltaic monitoring software for self-consumption. A clear example of how to make the most of energy through data. A match between smart energy and data.

Boosting energy with analytical intelligence

Imagine this: you have solar panels on your roof, you are generating clean energy, but how do you know if you are getting the most out of your system? This is precisely where data comes into play.

Pylon Data’s vision focuses on the importance of acquiring, standardising and managing energy data to create fast and effective solutions in the energy sector. This includes improving maintenance management and alert responsiveness.

I want to show you this dashboard. A very intuitive dashboard that provides a real-time view of the performance of solar installations.

Challenges in the monitoring of self-consumption plants

Undoubtedly, there is a revolution brewing in the energy market. And with it, come multiple opportunities and challenges.

1. Technological heterogeneity

Many technologies are used in solar panels, inverters and monitoring systems. And it is precisely this diversity that can make data integration and efficient management of solar installations difficult. Consider that each technology has its own requirements when it comes to data collection and analysis.

2. Integration of data from multiple sources

Self-consumption PV installations often use equipment from different manufacturers, complicating data integration.

3. Customer communication management

If we want to provide a good service, we must present data in an understandable way and provide quick and good answers to queries. We must be able to provide real and detailed information on system performance.

In short, data has undeniable transformative power in the energy sector. It is up to us to drive innovation and growth in photovoltaic self-consumption, while contributing to building a more sustainable future.
