Intelligent solar PV monitoring system
Protect your commercial solar assets — catch faults in hours, not at the next service.
Solar Buddy watches every system you own, on any inverter brand, automatically detects real underperformance, tells you what it's costing you, and helps you fix it fast.
Works with every major inverter brand: SolarEdge · Fronius · Enphase · Huawei · Sungrow · SMA · ABB
THE HIDDEN COST OF SOLAR FAULTS
Most owners only discover a fault at the annual service — months too late.
A survey by Choice found 21% of solar owners had no idea if their system was performing properly. Inverter apps show you data; they don't tell you what's wrong.
$500+ per panel, per year
One broken panel quietly bleeds energy — and revenue — until someone notices.
Found 6 months late
Faults typically surface only when a technician finally arrives for annual service.
Charts don't equal answers
Weather, shading and seasonality make problems almost impossible to spot by eye.
HOW DETECTION WORKS
Intelligent baselines that know the difference between weather and a real fault.
Solar Buddy models exactly how each system should perform, then watches for the gap.
✓ Output matches expected performance
✓ System health: 95% · Normal operation
✓ No action needed — keep generating savings
⚠ Output well below expected
⚠ System health dropped to 49%
⚠ SMS & email sent: “Possible inverter fault detected”
Alerted within 2 hours — so you can call your installer today, not discover it six months later.

How Solar Buddy works
1 · Connect your systems
Link your existing inverter monitoring. Works with any brand — no hardware installation required.
2 · It learns each system
Our algorithms analyse normal performance, accounting for weather, shading and seasonal variation.
3 · Get alerts that matter
24/7 monitoring sends SMS/email within hours of detecting genuine underperformance.
MORE THAN AN ALERT
A real person helps you fix it.
Most monitoring stops at a notification. Solar Buddy doesn't. We triage the fault, tell you exactly what it means and what to do, and help you get it resolved — done-for-you protection, not just another dashboard to check.
✓ We triage every alert before it reaches you
✓ Plain-English guidance on what to do next
✓ Help getting the right installer on the job
✓ Fewer false alarms — we only flag what's real
