What can the Tigo TS4 monitoring do that thermal imaging can't?
[At the 2021 NABCEP CE Conference, Greg Smith, Training Director at Tigo Energy, was one of the invited panel members for the 'Installer Tips and Tricks' technical session. This was one of the questions asked by a participant in the session.]

Thermal imaging, particularly using drone technology, has become a very popular method of preventative maintenance for larger solar arrays, although residential installers committed to quality workmanship and system maintenance will also use the technology. While great at detecting hotspots that can indicate a wide range of issues - loose connections, array fouling, damaged modules, etc., module level monitoring offers a far deeper look into array health.
Tigo recently gave the monitoring portal a facelift and a new name. You can learn more about the Energy INtelligence Portal here: https://www.tigoenergy.com/monitoring
