Information shown in the "History" tab:
2.
This tab is divided into 4 sections:"Plant performance", "Comparison of generated energy", "Economic savings" and "Environmental
impact".
Information shown in the "Info" tab:
3.
This tab shows the plant information with the values with which it was created. Any field can be modified by pressing the "properties"
button [ ], to the right of the plant title and then, in the drop-down menu, by clicking the "Edit" button.
When the retailer changes its electricity rates, the price per kWh must also be edited, for example.

The "Plant Performance" section shows the "Today", "Day" and
"Month" information. The "Today" tab shows a chart with the real-
time instantaneous generation, consumption and self-consumption
values, while the "Day" tab shows the sum of the instantaneous
values of the previous chart. The "Month" tab shows the total values
of the previous days.
The colour key of the chart follows the same pattern, as the synoptic
chart: Red shows the energy consumed from the grid. Green shows
the energy generated by the photovoltaic panels. Blue shows the
self-consumption: the consumption of energy generated from the
photovoltaic panels instead of from the grid.
You can enlarge specific areas on the chart by pinching the screen
with two fingers and spreading them out. Close them back again to
return to the original image.
The different charts can be hidden or displayed by clicking on the
"Generation", "Consumption" and "Self-consumption" buttons.
The data in "Comparison of generated energy" can be grouped by
months or years. This example shows the monthly production of
a plant created in the month of May 2018 and the production until
the current month, which is supposed to be August 2020.
Comparing months of different years can be very useful to detect
problems in a photovoltaic installation, or even to have an idea of the
degradation of the panels.
The "Economic savings" section shows charts with the approximate
values of "Savings per generation" (amount obtained by multiplying
the generation by the price of kWh consumed) and "Simplified
compensation" (amount obtained by multiplying the generation
injected into the multiplied by the price of kWh injected).
The savings in terms of CO2 emissions and their equivalence in
number of trees planted can be seen in the "Environmental impact"
section.
In a conventional installation, each kWh generated using fossil fuels
generates greenhouse gas emissions. These gases are classified
as gases with a "carbon footprint" and they are converted into an
equivalent in carbon dioxide (CO2). Therefore, the value shown is the
amount of CO2 emissions that an equivalent fossil fuel system would
have generated to produce the energy that the system (plant) has
generated with renewable energy.
Moreover, trees absorb CO2 and this is why they are used in many
different reforestation projects worldwide to counteract CO2 levels.
By using renewable energy sources, the level of CO2 that trees
have to absorb is reduced. The number of trees displayed would be
equivalent to the new trees that would need to be planted.
