Solar Data Systems Announces New and Enhanced Features for Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade Metering Solution
Solar Data Systems, Inc. has announced the launch of the new enhanced design of the Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade Meter, providing the ultimate turnkey solution for measuring solar PV plant performance. The Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade metering solution supports single (split) or three phase service and provides ANSI class 0.2 certified solar PV metering. It is easy to install, maintain, and operate at a cost effective price-point for commercial and utility projects.
Additional Communication Protocols, Increased Compatibility
In addition to providing near real-time inverter direct monitoring like its predecessor, the new Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade Meter offers adaptable options including SCADA integration through DNP3 or Modbus protocol. These additional communication protocols plus compatibility with over 100 inverter brands, provide power management tools for control of inverter production, power factor, VAR and grid export.
Additional meters can be added for total building load, sub-consumption, and net energy export monitoring.
Enhanced Enclosure Features
As part of the enhanced product redesign, the non-fading polycarbonate and ABS plastic enclosure now features a swing frame to accommodate more options in a compact package. An optional clear protective cover, appropriate for indoor installation, is also available to provide easy configuration and visualization.
High Performance Hardware
The Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade Meter includes a prewired Solar-Log, energy meter, fusing blocks, RS485/422 ports and CTs as needed for fast installation. The DC power architecture has been modified to increase system reliability and contribute to the cost effective price point.
To learn more about the Solar-Log Commercial Revenue Grade Meter visit Solar-Log® at Solar Power International, Sept 13th-15th, Booth 219.

Development Begins on World's First Electricity-Generating Windows for Retrofitting Existing Homes and Commercial Buildings
SolarWindow Technologies, Inc., the leading developer of transparent electricity-generating liquid coatings for glass and flexible plastics, announced that it has begun initial work on transparent electricity-generating veneers. These could be applied directly on to existing windows of homes and commercial buildings, for which there are an estimated over 430 million square feet of windows in the U.S. alone.
To address the marketplace for existing properties, especially the five million tall towers that consume almost 40% of the electricity generated in the United States, SolarWindow envisions transparent flexible veneers that have an innovative fastening system on one side and a transparent electricity-generating coating on the other. To convert an existing passive window into an electricity-generating active window with a SolarWindow veneer, installers would simply cut the veneers to size on location and attach the fastening system to existing glass. Then, using a proprietary interconnection system, the electricity generated can be routed into the buildings electrical system or connected directly to fixtures for use.
SolarWindow has already developed proprietary, patent-pending, electricity-generating liquid coatings being engineered to be applied to new glass during high-speed manufacturing using existing infrastructure and fabrication processes at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The companys transparent SolarWindow technology is so revolutionary that it has been presented before members of the U.S. Congress and received noteworthy recognition in many well-known publications worldwide.
When newly manufactured glass is coated with SolarWindow electricity-generating liquids and fabricated into a window, it has the potential of turning entire buildings into vertical power generators, reducing electricity costs by up to 50% per year. SolarWindow can provide a one-year financial payback while producing 50-times greater energy than rooftop solar when modeled for a 50-story building, according to the companys independently validated Power & Financial Model. For the same modeled building, SolarWindow modules could provide the equivalent reductions in carbon dioxide emissions produced by as much as 770 acres of forest sequestering carbon dioxide.
For the new construction market, SolarWindow is currently engaged in various initiatives and ongoing discussions with leading financial and industry participants for the integration and eventual commercialization of the SolarWindow coatings into the flat glass market, which is a $72 billion industry worldwide.
SolarWindow plans to release additional information, developments, images and videos about these transparent veneers for retrofitting existing passive windows on homes and commercial building windows in the near future.
