Users: 
Leasing Companies, Installers, Homeowners
Purpose: 
Panel health monitoring, installation guidance, energy cost monitoring.

Solar Gate was proposed as a networked IoT device that allowed access by solar panel leasing companies for system health monitoring, for panel technicians to be guided through and to confirm and troubleshoot installation, and for homeowners to track energy savings and planning.

Full dashboard for use by solar panel leasing/installation companies to monitor health of individual and area-wide panels. Mobile app used by technicians to confirm installation protocols. Mobile app for homeowners who want to monitor and adjust for energy savings. All monitoring data sent my IoT networked wifi device at location.
