Solar Analytics

Jonathon Dore speaks at UNSW SPREE

Abstract

Solar Analytics is an Australian data Start-Up company providing automated analysis of rooftop solar PV systems to show the customer how well their system is performing and to provide diagnostic support to solar retailers in order to help them resolve faults quickly.

This seminar will present the methodology behind the analysis, giving insight into algorithm development and implementation through case-studies of system faults. The role of analytics in the changing landscape of home energy use will be discussed, with a focus on developments both within Solar Analytics and throughout the industry.
