Abstract In this paper, we developed remote wireless communication integrated monitoring system to keep and manage solar energy generation system based on ZigBee communication. Integrated monitoring system is consist of Terminal Module - possible voltage detection each PV modules ? as well as reception AP(Access point Module). Mornitoring system`s error rate of generation, alarm push, failure rate - based on ZigBee comunication - was verified through test bed experiment. This monitoring module enables the failure and maintenance of the PV module unit and protects against the loss or damage of the communication line which is a problem in case of wire. This monitoring system based on the remote wireless Zigbee communication, expected to be applied on a lot from small to large solar generation facilities.
