Headend Application
KALKI.IO DER Data hub provides remote monitoring and management of DER generation plants and its associated components by securely connecting with inverters, weather stations, irradiance sensors, revenue meters and batteries as required for the deployment. DER Head end can also be used to deploy applications for predictive maintenance, degradation monitoring, inventory management and generation forecasting which would help to optimize the ROI.
DER Gateway Software
Kalki.io Edge (KIOE) earlier known as SyncConnect edge gateway software has ready-made templates to connect with common inverters available in the market and also support standard protocols such as IEEE2030.5, SunSpec Modbus, IEC61850-90-7 which helps the user to integrate inverters, string combiners, weather sensors from different vendors seamlessly. It also supports commonly used utility protocols like IEC 60870, DNP3.0, DLMS-COSEM to connect with the grid operators. KIOE enables secure connectivity with each device remotely for configuration and maintenance purposes. KIOE runs in any standard Linux OS based hardware/ Virtual Machines/ Containers.
DER Gateway Hardware
SYNC2310 series gateways are SunSpec Certified IEEE 2030.5 Gateway hardware. DER gateway is used to interconnect Distributed Energy Resource (DER) site with utility headend system, and DER Aggregators over IEEE 2030.5, DNP3 or IEC 104. Gateways can communicate with the DER devices on site e.g., smart inverter or Energy Management System (EMS) using any of the communication interfaces defined in IEEE 1547-2018 (Modbus, DNP3 and IEEE 2030.5).
Embedded Modules
SYNC 200 series would be suitable for device or equipment manufacture who want to add build in features for standard protocol connectivity or edge computing capability with in the inverters. It’s a series are system on modules (SOM) which can be directly plugged inside inverters or string combiners in the field and enable it to communicate on standard protocols like IEEE2030.5, sunspec modbus, IEC61850, IEEE15815.

kalki.io DER Data Hub is a cloud-based headend for Solar inverters, windfarm, battery storage systems, CHP to enable the remote monitoring and management of DER plants.
By securely connecting with inverters, revenue meters, power storage devices, weather stations, and irradiance sensors as required for deployment, the Kalki.io DER data hub system is an ideal solution for a distributed energy resource management system that monitors & manages your plant equipment & components.Â
With a solid framework and effective implementation, Kalkitech IoT-based solar power monitoring system is specifically designed with customized features to overcome recurring technical issues happening at the Solar power generation plants. More than just solar power monitoring, Kalki.io DER data hub can be used to deploy applications for generation forecasting, predictive maintenance, inventory management, and degradation monitoring, thereby helping to optimize your ROI.
Why Kalki.io DER Data Hub?
The Solar PV monitoring system part of DER Headend integrates with both legacy plant level SCADA systems as well as with the latest IoT based sensors and empowers you to manage your PV plant in a single frame view, with live updates and status of components, enabling the quick fix for unproductive or malfunctioning of any equipment. While conventional monitoring & management solutions available are not centralized, we offer an end-to-end cloud-based distributed energy resource management solution for centralized solar energy monitoring, controlling, and management.Â
It also provides role based access control across the fleet and gives you an edge over data collection by analyzing the gathered data to optimize the power generation to the rated capacity. Unlike conventional SCADA-based monitoring systems, Kalki.io IoT-based solar power monitoring system is built with sufficient security measures. Compared to SCADA-based solar monitoring solutions, the distributed energy resource management system is of superior quality and provides better control over the production and managing of your remote assets, and helps in improving the portfolio.
Major Advantages
To name a few, the major highlights of the Kalkitech IoT-based solar power monitoring system include communication with multiple makes of inverters and revenue meters, user-friendly interface with single line diagram, dashboards, reports, and alerts, REST API for building additional applications, and more. Kalki.io solution is a cloud-based monitoring platform that renders improved solar PV performance monitoring and yield assurance. The built-in monitoring sensors and transmitters of each panel transmit data to the inverter, allowing immediate fault detection of equipment using centralized IED management and alerts at the module level, string level, and system level.Â
Ensuring secure authentication, the kalki.io solar PV monitoring system consolidates data from different sites / different makes & models and improves equipment design life by monitoring the plant performance management data in a very seamless manner. It also reduces maintenance costs by secure remote access and optimizes operating costs by reducing unplanned incidents and onsite manpower requirements. Besides, the system ensures regulatory compliance by seamless integration with the grid operator. Proactive maintenance increases the asset life improving the power generation yield and increases your Return on Investment.
