The SolYield Platform analyses data from solar plants without initial investment, quantifies solar energy losses and identifies over 20 specific measures to enhance solar generation, safety and life of solar plant. This enables solar plant owners to maximize lifetime savings from solar by up to 25%.
For solar installers, our platform proactively detects over 20 issues, aiding in the planning of maintenance actions across multiple sites based on projected solar energy loss and maintenance cost. The detailed insights and recommended actions in the platform help further optimize maintenance costs. Large solar developers and retailers benefit from our platform's ability to delegate issues to third-party vendors and monitor the effectiveness of maintenance work at solar sites. Additionally, installers use our platform for generating repair quotes, managing equipment warranties, and creating customized solar health dashboards for plant owners, thereby opening avenues for additional revenue.
We have also played a crucial role in identifying and addressing a firmware issue for a major inverter manufacturer, preventing a widespread problem across thousands of sites. This positions our platform as a tool for inverter manufacturers to drive additional revenue through Inverter APIs, and maintain equipment health during warranty periods with proactive maintenance notifications to solar plant owners. This helps manufacturers optimize maintenance cost and maintain better customer relationships to drive retention.
Our platform has two key components:
Solar Yield Management Tool
Performance issues in a portfolio of solar plants are automatically captured as tickets by the SolYield workflow management tool. Each ticket details: (1) the estimated loss in a solar plant; (2) specific issues in the solar plant; (3) corrective actions required for resolution; and (4) equipment warranties. These tickets can be assigned to either the O&M team or third-party vendors. Additionally, user can generate repair quotes and track the effectiveness of maintenance actions using the tool. The tickets are automatically closed by the platform once the issue in the solar plant is resolved.
Solar Analytics Dashboards
SolYield offers analytics dashboards both at the enterprise and site levels, facilitating top-down and bottom-up analysis of issues. Solar installers/manufacturers have the option to customise site-level dashboards and grant access to their customers. Additionally, these site-level dashboards can be shared with customers as a weekly solar health report, along with customised referral marketing campaigns of installer.
