Flare SRM System

Monitor the performance of your utility-scale solar PV project with our Flare SRM System.

Details

Whether tracking or fixed, mono- or bifacial, 1 MW or 1 GW, NRG is focused on delivering repeatable solar resource measurements across your fleet of projects. From prompt and accurate project bidding support to post-installation training of O&M staff, NRG’s solar solutions span beyond our purpose-built and easy-to-use hardware products. We will tailor the measurement configuration to suit your needs and once finalized, NRG’s lean manufacturing operations excel at producing a consistent, standardized result, project after project.

Anchoring these solutions is our Flare SRM System – a turnkey measurement station for performance monitoring of utility-scale PV projects per IEC 61724-1:2021. Sharing many foundational components with our Flare SRA System, NRG’s approach to SRM involves a thoughtfully designed and integrated system of both original equipment and third-party products and services. The result is a system that delivers accurate, site-specific data including all relevant meteorological and environmental conditions: solar irradiance, module temperature, soiling conditions, and more. Our Flare SRM System is available as a standalone, tower-mounted meteorological station or an array-mounted solution.

NRG Systems works with a network of solar professionals to offer a turnkey experience for solar developers. This includes support with the design, manufacture, shipping, installation, and operation of solar resource measurement systems, including the delivery of independent campaign monitoring and finance-grade resource assessment reports.
