Onset announces Wi-Fi-based monitoring solution for tracking renewable energy systems performance

摘要

Onset Computer Corporation unveiled the HOBO U30/Wi-Fi Remote Monitoring System, a Web-based monitoring system that provides real-time, remote access to energy and environmental data over any Wi-Fi network. As the latest addition to Onset's line of HOBO U30 Remote Monitoring Systems, the HOBO U307Wi-Fi provides a simple and cost-effective means of verifying the effectiveness of green roofs, solar power systems, wind turbines, and other types of renewable energy systems. It accurately measures, records, and documents critical performance data that can be used to obtain green/energy-related rebates and credits. "Verifying the performance of renewable energy systems is necessary not only for customer satisfaction, but to also satisfy the criteria that various rebate agencies have for documenting a system's performance," explains Tom Wineman, owner of Clean Energy Design, a renewable energy design company. "The HOBO U30/Wi-Fi makes it easy to measure and verify system performance over time, and provides alarms for instant notification of any system problems that might be occurring. For installers, this can reduce or eliminate diagnostic time in the field."
