Solar is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the U.S. energy industry, with an average annual growth rate of 42 percent, over the past decade.
In response to increased demand, Alarm.com is offering an integrated solar monitoring solution for service providers, with a new Solar Automation & Awareness service package and Solar Programme Certification Course.
Solar monitoring offering
Alarm.com’s solar monitoring offering allows customers with SolarEdge and Enphase inverters (which combined account for more than 90 percent of all solar inverters in the U.S.) to monitor home solar panel energy production and consumption.
With the Solar Monitoring add-on, Alarm.com subscribers can track energy data for the day, week, past month
With the Solar Monitoring add-on, Alarm.com subscribers can track energy data for the day, week, past month, and past 12 months. All within the Alarm.com mobile app, they can monitor the property’s solar data, alongside security and other energy-saving devices and features, in order to lower power bills, and reduce environmental footprint.
Comprehensive smart energy management solution
As part of a comprehensive smart energy management solution, solar monitoring gives subscribers the information and insights needed to reduce overall energy consumption and manage a broad ecosystem of automation devices to compensate, when solar production is low, such as raising the thermostat set-point or turning off lights.
“Alarm.com offers solar monitoring, as part of an all-in-one solution, in response to the customer’s desire for sustainable energy solutions, with their home automation and security system,” said Shawn Barry, the Vice President of Strategic Sales at Alarm.com.
Shawn Barry adds, “The Alarm.com Solar Monitoring integration enables home owners with SolarEdge or Enphase inverters to monitor home solar panel energy production and consumption in the Alarm.com mobile app, empowering them to make smarter decisions about home energy use.”
Alarm.com Solar Programme
Alarm.com’s service provider partners recognise the growing opportunity that solar energy solutions can have on their business, but many haven’t been sure where to start. The Alarm.com Solar Programme can help service providers by integrating third-party solar market leaders into the proposal, licensing, and installation process.
The Alarm.com Solar Programme offers two new solar service plans that are available to either prospective or current Alarm.com customers.
