AI-native solar operations,
from telemetry to action

A unified operations layer for plant telemetry, analytics, alerts, workflows, reports, and automation — designed for O&M teams who want clear answers, not more raw data.

Live telemetry AI & MCP integration Alert lifecycle Scheduled reports
The problem

Solar teams don't need more data. They need clear answers.

Most plants already generate large volumes of telemetry from inverters, meters, weather stations, string boxes, and grid equipment. When that data lives in different portals, spreadsheets, and email reports, simple operational questions become slow to answer.

Scattered tools Inverter portals, meter dashboards, SCADA exports, Excel files, and email reports — each with their own login.
Hidden underperformance Plants can lose generation while everything looks "online" — derating, sensor drift, soiling, communication gaps.
Manual reporting Daily, weekly, and monthly summaries built from screenshots and spreadsheet copy-paste.
Slow root cause Weather, inverter, meter, string, and grid data must be compared by hand to explain a generation drop.
Reactive maintenance Teams react to alarms with limited context, leading to repeat site visits and avoidable cost.
Disconnected AI Generic chatbots can't see real telemetry, alerts, or equipment context — so they can't help with operations.
What you get

Built for solar operations teams

One operational view across plants, inverters, meters, strings, weather, and alerts — designed for O&M teams who want to find issues fast and act with confidence.

Plant performance visibility

Plant-level views of generation, availability, telemetry freshness, alerts, energy, power, irradiance, and temperature — together in one place.

Inverter, meter & string analytics

Inspect inverter output, meter electrical signals, SMB and string telemetry, and weather context to find the underperforming asset fast.

Hidden loss detection

Combine plant, inverter, meter, weather, source, and grid views to surface derating, sensor drift, curtailment, and communication gaps.

Weather correlation

Correlate generation with irradiance, ambient and module temperature, wind, and humidity to separate equipment issues from environmental ones.

Grid & DG statistics

Track import/export, net energy, self-consumption, frequency, power factor, phase voltage, and power-quality indicators alongside production.

Alert lifecycle management

Move alerts through open → in-progress → resolved → closed → reopened with full history, severity, owner, and resolution notes.

AI-assisted investigation

Ask operational questions in natural language. AI agents query devices, telemetry, time-series, and alerts through controlled tools — humans stay in control of sensitive actions.

Scheduled reporting

Daily, weekly, and monthly reports with exception summaries, optional human review, and delivery through in-app, email, or webhook channels.

Broad device integration

Onboard inverters, smart meters, weather stations, string monitoring boxes, grid analyzers, and SCADA gateways from most major manufacturers — over standard protocols (Modbus, SunSpec, IEC 61850, MQTT, REST) without custom middleware.

How it works

From plant telemetry to operational action

A clean path from raw signals to clear decisions, with AI doing the heavy preparation before humans approve and act.

Connect

Stream telemetry from inverters, meters, weather stations, string boxes, and grid equipment into the platform's IoT layer.

Analyze

Solar Connect turns raw messages into plant, inverter, meter, SMB, weather, and grid analytics — with freshness and availability built in.

Investigate

Compare equipment, weather, and grid signals side by side. Ask the AI assistant to summarize exceptions and likely causes with supporting evidence.

Act

Move alerts through their lifecycle, dispatch maintenance with context, automate reports, and route notifications to the right team.

Why Solar Connect

More than a monitoring dashboard

Most solar tools focus on showing data. Solar Connect connects data to alerts, AI, workflows, and automation — so the same view that surfaces an issue can also drive the response.

Operating area Typical solar dashboard With Solar Connect
Daily review Open multiple portals; manually compare generation, alarms, weather, meters. AI prepares exception summaries from unified plant context; humans review what matters.
Root-cause analysis Engineers manually compare inverter, weather, meter, grid, and alert data. AI compares signals and provides likely causes with supporting evidence.
Reporting Screenshots, exports, spreadsheets, manual commentary. Scheduled workflows draft reports, add exception notes, and deliver through platform channels.
Alerts Static list with limited context. Full lifecycle with telemetry context, history, severity, impact, and recommended next steps.
AI usage Generic chat disconnected from operations. Approved tools expose telemetry, alerts, and analytics to AI clients via MCP.
Extensibility One product, one set of screens. App-based platform — add Devices, Asset Management, Maintenance, and future apps without rebuilding.
AI that works on real plant data

Ask operational questions in plain language

Solar Connect exposes controlled tools that AI assistants can call to query devices, telemetry, time-series, alerts, and page-level analytics. AI does the heavy preparation; humans stay in control of sensitive actions.

Which inverters have stale telemetry in the last 15 minutes?
Show today's underperforming sections compared with irradiance.
Why did plant output drop at 2 PM?
Summarize open critical alerts and likely affected equipment.
Prepare a daily generation and exceptions summary.

Use it from the AI client you already work in

Through the Model Context Protocol, approved Solar Connect tools can be called from external AI clients with the right organization and permission context. No need to leave the AI workspace your team already uses.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about what Solar Connect is, who it's for, and how it fits with the rest of your stack.

Is this only a monitoring dashboard?

No. Solar Connect includes dashboards, but the platform also supports device operations, alerts, AI tools, scheduling, notifications, event-driven workflows, and future domain applications. Dashboards are the surface; workflows and automation are what actually move the operational needle.

How is AI used?

AI uses approved application tools to query devices, telemetry, time-series data, events, alerts, and solar analytics. This makes AI useful for investigation, summaries, reporting, and guided operations — not generic chat. Sensitive actions still require human approval.

Can users work from Claude, Cursor, or another AI tool?

Yes, when the organization enables the approved MCP integration. The platform exposes controlled MCP tools so an external AI client can query Solar Connect data, prepare summaries, and trigger permitted workflows with the correct organization and permission context.

Does it replace SCADA?

No. Solar Connect is an operational-intelligence and automation layer, not a SCADA replacement. It complements existing plant systems by turning telemetry and operational data into insights, workflows, reports, and AI-assisted actions.

How does data get in?

Devices stream telemetry into the platform's IoT layer via standard protocols (HTTP, MQTT, WebSocket). Topics organize the data; Solar Connect's semantic layer maps raw payloads to plant, inverter, meter, string, and weather measurements you can query and visualize.

Is my data isolated per organization?

Yes. The platform is organization-aware end-to-end. Each customer or business unit sees only its own plants, devices, telemetry, alerts, and reports. AI tool calls inherit the same organization and permission context.

Who is it for?

Solar plant owners, O&M companies, EPCs with operations responsibility, C&I solar operators, renewable portfolio managers, and digital transformation teams in energy organizations.

What can be added later?

The platform uses a modular app architecture. Devices, asset management, maintenance, ticketing, and other domain apps can plug into the same shell, share authentication, IoT, notifications, scheduling, and AI infrastructure — without rebuilding the portal.
