Swami Solar - Unified Monitoring Across 9 Buildings
300 kW
Solar Portfolio | 9 Buildings | 9 Inverters | Jhanor NTPC
9 Buldings
1.8 Km
1 Master Device
8 Child device
0 Cable Cost
Problem Statement
As Swami Solar expanded its solar installations across 9 buildings spread over a 1.8 km campus, managing and monitoring the entire system became increasingly challenging. Each building operated independently, making it difficult for the operations team to get a complete picture of overall plant performance.

THE DYULABS SOLUTION
Master-Child Architecture
Dyulabs deployed 1 aALoK Master and 8 aALoK Child Devices to connect solar assets across a 1.8 km site, enabling centralized monitoring from a single dashboard.
Reduced Communication Cost
Instead of extensive communication cabling across multiple buildings, the aALoK architecture minimized wiring requirements, significantly reducing installation complexity and cable costs.
Complete Plant Visibility
Integrated 9 Inverters, 9 MFMs, and 1 Weather Monitoring Station into the aALoK platform, providing real-time generation, energy, and weather insights from one centralized interface.
Scalable Deployment
The modular Master-Child architecture allows additional buildings and solar assets to be added without major infrastructure changes, ensuring long-term scalability.
