Meteorological Technology
For Solar PV installations
When performance really matters - focus on the elements
Gill’s Meteorological Systems enable Solar Plant Managers to operate and forecast power yield more efficiently.
Accurate data
Gill Products provide precise weather measurements which can be relied upon for data driven decision making.
Hi-end technology
Gill products are suitable for use in IEC 61724-1:2017 class A and B Solar PV installations and operate in environments with high dust and sand.
Networkable
Gill products integrate into SCADA data acquisition systems, can be configured and used as separates across PV sites.

Utility PV Installations
Commercial PV Installations
Professional Weather Station Platform for Utility Scale PV Installations
Monitors in real-time the weather elements known to affect PV efficiency and safety.
Parameters measured:
Wind Speed | Wind Direction | Air Temperature|Humidity |Dew point | Rainfall | Panel Temperature
Optional third party parameters for integration:
Global horizontal irradiance | Plane of array
Provides highest accuracy real-time weather data to
support power forecast systems.
Improves short term and intra-hour
forecasting allowing you to respond to
real-time power fluctuations.
Detects sudden high winds or
increasing wind speed due to low front
conditions or storm down bursts.
Suitable platform for IEC 61724-1:2017 class A and B installations.
Integrate third party sensors using common protocols.
How it can help you?
