When you have a solar energy system that is supplying uninterrupted energy to your household, its important to be completely aware of all the metrics. These include generation, usage, average consumption and other metrics that may be useful in gauging and understanding the performance of the solar energy system. As such, many systems come with their own applications and monitoring systems to provide access to performance metrics; but with a system as advanced and feature-rich as INTRIX, you need an application that befits the system: introducing the next generation of performance-monitoring applications with Beacon Energy’s BELCONNECT.
Let’s take a look at the ins and outs of BELCONNECT and how it helps you keep up to date on each and every particular of your solar energy system.

Available on all mobile and desktop platforms, the application can be downloaded from either Google’s Play Store or Apple’s App Store and connected seamlessly to your system.
What does the BELCONNECT app do? Lets take a quick look.
Let’s take a deeper look at the features of BELCONNECT and how it is easily the best accompanying application to an innovative solar energy system like INTRIX.
BELCONNECT: The many features
The aforementioned features represent the tip of the iceberg of what BELCONNECT is capable of. Here is a detailed explanation of the features of INTRIX’s control module.
i. Cost saving calculation
The primary function of a solar energy system like INTRIX is to save you big on your electricity bills. INTRIX does that, and BELCONNECT shows that. Get complete cost saving calculations in real time and dive deeper into how much the system generates and saves you on your electricity bill.
ii. Expected, actual energy production
BELCONNECT utilizes data from weather aggregate services to predict your system’s output, based on sunlight conditions throughout the day. At the end of the day, the application will also display what the actual generation has been, highlighting any differences in the two and recommending tips to ensure solar energy efficiency stays high all day.
iii. Real time Power Flow
BELCONNECT has metrics on the go! Everything is visible and presented in a user-friendly manner. From total system output to battery charge status to grid import/ export status, you can have it all with real time Power Flow.
iv. Solar energy utilization
Want your INTRIX smart solar solution to charge the batteries rather than energise your home? Done. Want it to export energy to the grid? BELCONNECT has you covered! The application will show you the entire power management plan and the ratio with which energy generated from the system can be distributed among load, grid and battery.
v. Peak hour energy sources overview
During peak consumption hours, the more units you consume, the more your bill increases. BELCONNECT has a special feature that monitors usage during peak hours and will instruct the system to define the portion of the grid and battery to provide energy to the household during peak consumption time to maximise savings on your electricity bills.
vi. Holistic system information
Sharp UI and an intuitive app layout and design means that the most important information comes first. A holistic system information page tells you all you need to know about the system at a glance, making BELCONNECT a pinnacle in ease and convenience in monitoring your solar energy solution.
vii. History
BELCONNECT offers users the ability to pull up their history, including energy generation history and error history for further convenience and ease of use.
viii. Ticket entry, tracking
Got a complaint? BELCONNECT does it for you! It monitors any active tickets you may have with the service provider and notifies you of active resolutions and ticket exits, keeping you up to date on things that really matter.
ix. BEL support with NOC
The Network Operations Center (NOC) is your go-to for anything related to your INTRIX solar energy solution. BELCONNECT takes it a step further by giving you direct access to NOC resources in-app so you can troubleshoot whatever issue you may have from the application and resolve it with NOC’s supercharged and always-available team.
