Solar Panel Monitoring

Hardware installs near internet gateway. Uses powerline ethernet to communicate with solar panel. Apparently talk to their "micro-inverter" (one per panel) so it appears to be a many-inverter monitoring system.

Please note that the Enphase EMU (Energy Management Unit) has been replaced with the Envoy Communications Gateway. The functionality is mostly unchanged but the form factor has changed significantly. Also note that Enlighten pricing has changed (there is now a 90-day free trial and the pricing is MSRP $2 per module). Please read more at the Enphase website - http://www.enphaseenergy.com/products/.
