Solar monitoring for councils
PV Fleet watches the solar on every council building, detects faults and underperformance, and tells your team which site needs attention.
Any inverter brand. No new hardware. Alerts within hours.
Works with every major inverter brand: SolarEdge · Fronius · Enphase · Huawei · Sungrow · SMA · ABB
WHY IT MATTERS
Council solar is usually installed site by site, over years, on different inverter brands.
Faults are rarely found until the next service visit.
PV Fleet pays for itself by cutting maintenance spend and catching faults early.
One panel can drag down a string
A single faulty panel quietly cuts the output of every panel wired with it until someone notices.
Ten sites, ten logins
Each installer left a different portal. Checking them all every week is a job nobody in the works team has time for.
6 months late
Faults usually surface only when a technician arrives for the annual service, or when the electricity bill goes up.
You see how every council system is actually performing, site by site. The works team gets the alert, the asset manager gets the monthly report, and there is a written record when someone asks.
HOW DETECTION WORKS
PV Fleet knows a cloudy week from a broken inverter.
We model exactly how each system should perform, then compare it to what it actually produces.
✓ Output matches expected performance
✓ System health: 95% · Normal operation
✓ No action needed. Keep generating savings
⚠ Output well below expected
⚠ System health dropped to 49%
⚠ SMS and email sent: “Possible inverter fault detected”
Alerted within hours, so your team can raise the work order today instead of finding out at the next service visit.

KEY FEATURES
Everything you need to look after the solar on council buildings.
Automated monitoring and fault detection
Every site checked around the clock. Depots, pools, libraries, admin buildings, community centres.
Alerts when a fault is detected
SMS and email to whoever raises the work order, within hours.
Monthly reports
A plain English summary of how each site performed. Ready to attach to an asset or audit report.
All your systems on one dashboard
Every council building on one screen, whoever installed it.
Shading and degradation analysis
See what is slowly eating your output, and whether panels are fading faster than they should.
Fewer technician call outs
Send a contractor when there is a real fault, not on a hunch.
Bill savings, calculated
What each site saved in dollars, from generation and the tariff you set. The number the annual report asks for.
Encrypted and secure
Your data is protected. Nothing to install on council IT systems.
WHAT COUNCILS GET
Built for the people responsible for council assets.
SIMPLE TO PROCURE
From $790 per site, per year.
No hardware · No installation · No site visits · Any inverter brand
A small annual line item, priced per site, so you can start with a handful of buildings and add the rest when you are ready. Built and run in Australia.
A record you can stand behind
Every alert and every report is timestamped. When a councillor, auditor or insurer asks whether the solar is performing, you have the answer in writing, site by site.
If your council took Community Energy Upgrades Fund money, you will need to show what the new systems actually delivered. That is easier when the data has been collected all along rather than reconstructed at the end.
