As a leading global supplier of inverter and energy storage systems, Sungrow unveiled its upgraded version of its iSolarCloud App on September 1st, 2023. As an intelligent project management and monitoring system developed by Sungrow, iSolarCloud enables comprehensive lifecycle management for photovoltaic and energy storage plants, including data collection, plant monitoring, as well as operation and maintenance (O&M). The new version boasts enhanced functionality, improved information security, and a visually appealing design, ensuring an unparalleled user experience characterized by smart management, comprehensive protection, and a simplified screen display.

Previously, to update the firmware in the PV plant, one had to first download the firmware update package and then update by logging in a to local terminal. Such a long and complex process affects the user experience.

While the new iSolarCloud supports on-click remote firmware updates, which means the on-site O&M is no longer needed, making O&M more timely and efficient.
