Greg Sheridan and Glen Anderson have implemented a solar power system a their home lab in Sydney, Australia. Their system includes 400W solar panels with microinverters (which essentially lets them monitor each panel separately) and a Tesla Powerwall.
But what metrics are they monitoring? Greig and Glen differentiate between health status metrics, which indicate the status of the different components of the solar power system, and operational metrics, which help them optimize their power consumption on a day-to-day basis. And they also describe how their monitoring helped them make their service provider aware of a general problem.
