description This paper presents the design and implementation of a solar panel data monitoring system using a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system. The system is built via the Siemens S7-1200 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and programmed using TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) Portal V17 software. The system includes various sensors and instrumentation for monitoring solar panel performance, such as temperature sensors, current and voltage sensors, and irradiance sensors. The PLC collects data from these sensors and transmits it to the SCADA software, which displays real-time data on the graphical user interface (GUI). The system also includes features such as alarms and notifications for abnormal conditions, data logging for historical analysis, and remote access for monitoring and control from a central location. The system's reliability and efficiency are enhanced through the use of the S7-1200 PLC and TIA Portal V17 software, which provide advanced programming and automation capabilities. Therefore, this solar panel data monitoring system provides a comprehensive solution for monitoring and optimizing the performance of solar panel systems, helping to increase efficiency, reduce downtime, and improve overall system performance.
