Design and Implementation of New Battery Monitoring System for Photovoltaic Application

Abstract

Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy is one of the most well-known sustainable energy sources, accounting for a larger part of renewable energy generation. Monitoring systems have received a lot of attention in terms of performance development as the demand for solar energy has expanded considerably over the previous few decades. The solar monitoring system's battery has been connected to a wireless platform, allowing data to be collected wirelessly from various nodes and sensors. However, several challenges, including large data management, long-distance data transfer, signal interference, and security, may limit the usefulness of solar PV monitoring. Therefore, This paper develops and implements a modern system for monitoring the battery activity of photovoltaic systems, this will leverage modern communication technologies to transfer data across large distances at the lowest possible cost and with the longest possible battery life. Because of its low power consumption and ability to communicate across vast distances, this technology is known as LoRa (Long Range) communication. This research article provides a flexible, stable, and secure strategy for monitoring utilizing sensor networks and IoT technologies in PV systems that Access to control over PV systems located in remote places, his technology aids in defect detection, maintenance, and the collection of generation and performance data for the study.
