When I joined the Enphase team last summer, I didn’t know what I didn’t know about the world of solar.

Displaying performance data in a place where many people see it, like the lobby of an office building, is a nice way to enhance system monitoring. The option is available to all Enphase System owners via Enlighten’s Kiosk View setting. Visitors may recognize patterns in the results and provide feedback if they notice something unusual. Ten sets of eyes, or a hundred, are better than one. Anytime a system is underperforming, it’s best to notify a technician as soon as possible.
