How can I measure how well my equipment is performing?

Your solar system monitoring app provides you with hourly measurements of its power production. Use that information to determine when your solar system is producing the most power. It is always better to use the electricity produced by your solar system than it is to sell that power to the utility company, plan your usage according to your production.

We recommend that you monitor your system regularly because its power output is affected by seasonality. Your system will most likely produce 65% of its annual power output in the spring and summer, and produce 35% of its annual output in the fall and winter.
