We take the complexity out of solar data.
A couple of weeks back we tackled the topic of integrity and it being the first pillar of our business. Today, I want to look at the second pillar of our business…innovation. As before, let’s define innovation…Merriam Webster says innovation is the introduction of something new. Pretty straight forward it seems, but really there is […]
In the “early” days of the solar PV industry the prevailing “wisdom” was this: a solar PV power plant was a system that could be built and then forgotten for 25 years. Mostly built on commercial rooftops, the panels had no moving parts, the electrical system was time tested and met NEC requirements, the inverters […]
This is the first of a series of blogs on the technical aspect of solar PV DAS and SCADA systems. So, to set the series stage, I thought the first topic should be just what do we mean by the two terms? Let’s explore that a little bit. DAS is an anacronym for Data Acquisition […]
In a recent post, I talked about REIG’s beginnings and the foundations we stand upon. Today’s post discussed the first and most important of the pillars…integrity. Being who you say you are and conducting every aspect of your business honestly. Merriam-Webster’s dictionary has three definitions for integrity and two of them are specific to how […]
Who owns your network? Do you? Or does your DAS software provider? Would you accept that same relationship in your office building? Doubtful… Let’s be real…networks are the most critical piece of your data infrastructure. They are an integrated system that works as your organization’s high speed digital highway and must be robust and reliable. […]
When I first got involved I the solar industry way back in 2008, I had no idea where the journey might take me and what my role in might be. The industry was just starting out and I don’t think anyone really had a clear vision of how rapidly solar PV would flourish and become […]
Dear friends, These are indeed different times than what we have known in the recent past. But different does not necessarily mean worse or better or any other synonym. It means the old way of building and managing solar PV systems may be behind us, but that also opens the doors to opportunities for those […]
Last week, Susan and I had made the drive from Charlotte to Nashville, TN to join in with 650 other entrepreneurs to participate in Ramsey Solution’s annual event known as EntreLeadership Mastery Series (ELMS for short.) I had attended the 2018 event but made the mistake of not including my business partner (and wife) in […]
One of the great things about working in the young and dynamic solar PV industry, is seeing the innovations that are created to solve some very perplexing challenges. There are some really smart minds out there dreaming and working on tomorrows systems that will be easier to build, more resilient and built for the long […]
The solar industry certainly does not lack for trade show opportunities. Seems like I get multiple invitations in my Inbox daily…India, China, the EU. You name it, there is some sort of solar event going on somewhere and seemingly every week of the year. But THE show for us here in the US is Solar […]
