Renewable energy is on the move. This general term includes solar and wind energy. Various types of wind turbines harvest wind energy, while the primary conversion of solar energy is performed via photovoltaic (PV) panels. However, solar thermal technology is in use as well.
As with any form of energy production, these systems can operate anywhere between optimal efficiency and capacity, and sever unreliability and inefficiency. For reaching efficiency and optimization – detailed monitoring is of paramount importance.
