Abstract

Indonesia is a country with a tropical climate and has a high intensity of solar irradiation. Seeing this situation, Indonesia is the right region to implement the installation of new and renewable energy such as PLTS. In the use of solar panels, the magnitude of the output power is determined by several environmental conditions, such as the intensity of sunlight, temperature, and the direction in which sunlight comes. To prevent damage and deterioration in the performance of solar panels, research is needed for a more accurate and efficient use of renewable energy. The study was a solar panel system with a Wemos D1 microcontroller that monitored online using Thing speak with the help of INA 219 and LDR sensors. Online monitoring system by recording data on current, voltage, and light intensity in real time and centralized. The system will store and record measurement data every 15 seconds in the form of JSON, XML, CSV file extensions. Error on the voltage sensor of 1.7% for and 3.2% for the current sensor. average panel voltage value of 12.77 V, average panel current value of 0.43 A and 2410 lux for light intensity at interval testing from 07:00 a.m.to 16:00p.m.
