This offer is exclusive to PROINSO’s customers in India and can help save up to $500 per project.
From 12 November, PROINSO’s project clients in India will get complimentary 1-year access to the monitoring module on EIRA, one of the most advanced asset monitoring and management platforms available in the solar industry. EIRA is a unified software platform developed by Inspire Clean Energy (ICE) working on a proprietary AI engine which allows assets to function as an integrated unit. The platform enables asset owners and managers to access the health of their renewable energy assets in less than three seconds and all details in less than three clicks. EIRA is hosted on Amazon Cloud Server, making it the most stable motoring platform with the highest uptime.
EIRA’s primary objective is to increase profitability and enhance efficiency of solar projects by enabling asset owners, managers & field teams to leverage the power of connected devices. The platform uses machine learning to provide better fault detection and diagnosis, and to action real-time preventive maintenance. Advanced analytics can predict asset reliability and lifetime, and can assign actionable tickets to the right person.

India is lagging behind with the majority of the market still relying on monitoring systems provided by inverter manufacturers which have very limited scope.
