☀️Climate change is making the energy transition a concrete priority, and photovoltaics is one of the key technologies for producing energy in a more sustainable way.
To ensure efficient performance over time, however, it is essential to accurately monitor the operating conditions of the system: solar irradiance, air and module temperature, wind, precipitation, humidity, snow and soiling on the panels can directly affect energy yield.
Reference standards such as IEC 61724-1:2021 confirm the importance of continuous, reliable and comparable environmental data.
⚡️LSI LASTEM can provide weather stations, field systems installed on photovoltaic modules and sensors dedicated to measuring the main parameters that influence the performance of PV plants.
Among these, pyranometers play a central role in measuring solar, reflected and diffuse irradiance, with solutions compliant with ISO 9060:2018 in Class A, B and C.
📊To support measurement reliability, LSI LASTEM is an accredited laboratory according to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 for air temperature, relative humidity, air speed and global irradiance.
