Wexus is dedicated to helping our customers save money, energy and time.
We take the pain out of stacks of utility solar bills and mountains of utility meter data so you can quickly find the value of your solar investment and ensure it's performing as designed.
We've created a first-of-its kind Solar ROI Dashboard with unique features to help you automatically track and optimize your solar bills and costs ($) as well as maintenance.
With the Solar Dashboard, Wexus grabs your solar bills and utility meter data on a daily basis.
Wexus then automatically displays your Cost With Solar and estimated Cost Without Solar and Net $ Savings to ensure your investment is performing at its best - or to identify areas of improvement.
With the Solar Dashboard, it's easy to detect in real time any under-producing or non-producing solar arrays. Energy production will be reduced month-month or in some cases fall to zero. Some common causes of under-producing solar arrays we've seen over many years include:
Wexus automatically pushes the solar information you need straight to your email inbox every month. No more sifting through utility bills to figure out how much $ you're saving with solar - or spending hours trying to figure out your true-up credits.
This is a great way to identify potential equipment / maintenance or account billing issues BEFORE they become a larger problem and BEFORE your solar array "drifts" for months without producing the expected ROI.
This chart shows 3 different values:
1) Light Green bar: how much energy your solar array was credited (i.e. excess energy sent back to the grid) by your utility company for a particular month.
2) Orange bar: how much energy your equipment tied to this solar array used/consumed for a particular month - like HVAC, lighting, irrigation pumps, etc.
(3) Grey popup box: the total 'net energy' for this solar array i.e. the total amount of energy credited back to the electric grid minus the total amount of energy used/consumed on site.
You can toggle between three different time periods:
Note: if there are any months with missing data, this is most likely due to the cadence of your utility billing cycle. Calendar days/months don't always match with utility billing days/months. For example, not every single meter/billing account will have an available bill on the first of the month.
This information may be backfilled later, after the actual utility bill arrives in your utility's database system. You may also see two bills appearing in the same calendar month, which may explain a month with no generation/usage and the next month with very high generation/usage.
We'll also enter default values for your solar proposal/equipment specification data. To improve accuracy of this chart, send us a copy of your original solar proposal.
This chart shows 2 different colored bars depending on the type of data Wexus has available from your utility provider:
1) Light Green bar: how much your actual solar utility bill was for a particular month.
2) Dark Green bar: how much your estimated utility bill would have been for a particular month if you had NOT installed solar.
This chart shows how much solar energy each piece of equipment consumed from your solar array in percentage terms.
This is very useful for determining where your largest energy consumers are, and whether you need to reduce - or add - energy loads to the array. This can help balance your production vs consumption and resulting solar credits to maximize your $ ROI.
*Note: the data may be grouped by equipment type or by each piece of equipment, depending on how your Wexus account is set up.
This chart shows how much solar radiation was produced in your local area and how the weather - like cloud cover, rain, fog, hail, etc - may have affected your array's production.
This chart shows how much energy your solar array produced - based on the design and size of the array - versus how much energy you consumed on site.
That's a quick review of the Solar ROI Dashboard in the Wexus software platform.
