The document discusses a monitoring service for solar inverter systems that allows users to perform direct panel testing and obtain real-time hardware readings. It highlights features like secure web interfaces for accessing inverter data and monitoring performance, which can save time and costs compared to on-site visits. Additionally, the system provides tools for operation and maintenance (O&M) and educates the public on energy savings through visual representations of system performance.
