Energy

The IoT platform built for inverters, meters, and batteries.

Every inverter vendor has a monitoring app. Every meter vendor has a web portal. Every BMS has its own dashboard. OmnIoT sits above all of them: multi-vendor, multi-plant, multi-tenant, branded as yours. One operator, a portfolio of assets, one view.

Who this is for

Three kinds of energy operators.

Solar, storage, and metering all benefit from the same aggregation and alerting layer. Integration paths differ.

Solar and renewable operators

You operate solar plants, wind assets, or hybrid renewable sites. String-level monitoring catches failing panels before production loss; inverter telemetry catches soft-fail modes the inverter UI does not surface. You need a monitoring layer above the inverter, across multiple plants, across multiple equipment vendors.

Battery storage and microgrid operators

You run BESS installations, commercial microgrids, or backup power systems. Battery cell voltages, pack temperatures, and charge/discharge cycles determine asset life. You need cell-level visibility, state-of-health tracking, and alerting before thermal runaway or rapid degradation.

Utility metering and distribution

You manage commercial metering, sub-metering, or distribution substations. Load profiling, power quality, and revenue-grade metering drive billing and compliance. You need a platform that handles Modbus-over-cellular from every meter and delivers per-customer branded portals.

Sensors and sources

Every energy data source, one cloud.

Modular hardware. Any sensor with RS485, analog, or I2C. Inverter, BMS, and meter integration via Modbus TCP/RTU and CAN as first-class paths.

Inverter telemetry

Modbus RTU and TCP integration with common inverter vendors (SMA, Fronius, Huawei, Sungrow, Solis, Enphase). Per-string current, DC/AC conversion efficiency, fault codes.

String-level monitoring

Per-string current sensors for large solar arrays. Detect soiling, shading, and panel failure before plant-level production drops become visible.

Energy meters (revenue-grade)

IEC 62053 / ANSI C12 compliant meters via Modbus or pulse outputs. Three-phase power, energy, reactive power, power factor, voltage quality. Revenue-grade where required.

Battery cell and pack monitoring

BMS integration via CAN or Modbus. Per-cell voltage, per-module temperature, SOC, SOH. Thermal runaway prevention, capacity fade tracking.

Weather and irradiance

Pyranometers, reference cells, anemometers, ambient temperature. Plant performance ratio calculation, expected-vs-actual analysis.

Environmental and safety

Ground-fault detection, smoke/heat sensors in battery rooms, intrusion detection. Integrated with alerting and remote shutdown where safety policy requires.

Workflows

What your operators and asset owners actually do.

Sensor data is the input. Workflows are what makes it useful. OmniCloud ships with the workflows energy operations need on day one.

Plant dashboards

Real-time view of every plant. AC/DC production, performance ratio, inverter status, string health. One operator, many plants, one dashboard.

Fleet-level aggregation

Portfolio view across sites, owners, or regions. Compare expected vs actual, ranking worst performers, identifying underperformance patterns.

Alarm management

Per-site, per-equipment thresholds. Escalation workflow with acknowledgement and comment. Integration with service ticket systems for follow-up.

Battery health tracking

Cell-level historical records. Degradation trending, cycle count, thermal behavior. Alerts on SOH thresholds tied to warranty and replacement planning.

Energy reporting

Monthly and annual production reports. Grid export vs self-consumption, power purchase agreement reconciliation, carbon offset calculation.

Customer and investor portals

Branded portals per asset owner or customer. Multi-tenant, scoped to their sites only. Daily digest emails, downloadable reports.

Why OmnIoT

One operator view across inverters, meters, and batteries.

Every inverter brand ships its own app. Every meter vendor has its own portal. Every BMS comes with its own dashboard. OmnIoT consolidates all of them into one multi-tenant cloud with one branded operator view and one customer portal. Cross-vendor, cross-plant, cross-asset-type, delivered as one platform.

FAQ

Energy-specific questions.

What inverters and meters does OmnIoT integrate with?

Common solar inverter vendors via Modbus TCP/RTU: SMA, Fronius, Huawei, Sungrow, Solis, Enphase via their Envoy gateway, SolarEdge via Modbus/Sunspec, and others. Revenue-grade meters via Modbus or pulse: Schneider, ABB, Carlo Gavazzi, Janitza, and similar. BMS integration via CAN or Modbus for most commercial battery vendors. Custom integrations are possible in an ODM engagement.

Is the platform production-grade?

Yes. OmniCloud runs in production across agriculture and aquaculture today. The multi-tenant architecture, multi-vendor integration capability, and operator/owner portal primitives that energy requires are core platform features, production-hardened.

Does the platform compete with solar monitoring systems like SolarEdge or Enphase apps?

Not exactly; it sits above them. SolarEdge or Enphase give you monitoring for their own equipment. OmnIoT aggregates across vendors and across plants, adding a unified multi-tenant portal, independent alerting, and integration with non-solar energy sources (wind, storage, meters). For single-vendor small residential or commercial sites, the manufacturer app is usually enough. For fleet operators across multiple vendors, the manufacturer-siloed view is the problem.

Can the platform handle revenue-grade billing data?

The platform supports revenue-grade meter integration and audit trails. For regulatory billing compliance in a specific jurisdiction (MID in EU, PUC in US states, etc.), formal certification is part of a regulated ODM engagement. The platform primitives are in place; the certification work is scope-specific.

What connectivity do energy installations use?

Cellular (4G LTE Cat-M1/NB-IoT) is the default for remote solar sites, rural substations, and BESS installations. WiFi and Ethernet where site networks are stable. Industrial-grade cellular gateways with VPN for operator-to-plant communication in regulated environments.

How quickly can an energy pilot run?

Typical pilots run 10 to 14 weeks from kickoff to devices live. Inverter and BMS integration drive the variability. First pilot is typically one plant or BESS asset before scaling to the portfolio.

What does a typical energy engagement cost?

Quoted per scope. Pilot tier starts in the mid five figures USD because energy engagements usually involve several equipment vendor integrations. Production scales to per-plant or per-meter hardware costs plus a per-user or per-tenant SaaS fee.

What about cybersecurity for grid-connected installations?

Controllers sit on the plant network, communicate outbound over TLS only, and never require inbound access. For regulated utility infrastructure (IEC 62443, NERC CIP), additional documentation and audit packages are part of the engagement. We work within customer cybersecurity policies rather than demanding exceptions.
