Abstract
Un controlador de paneles fotovoltaicos fue diseñado para aprovechar la energía eléctrica solar, facilitar y promover su uso en áreas urbanas; el controlador se conecta con un servidor para enviar datos de su estado y también solicita información importante que ayudará a su autonomía y eficiencia, la información que el servidor proporciona se basa en un análisis estadístico, las variables analizadas son el voltaje en el panel fotovoltaico que está directamente proporcional a la radiación del sol y el voltaje de la batería que es directamente proporcional a la cantidad de energía almacenada; los datos se obtienen de otros controladores que también se comunican con el servidor, actuando como recolectores de muestras; así es como se forma el entorno de Internet de las cosas, una gran red formada por controladores que colaboran entre sí. En la forma mas básica del controlador, funciona administrando la energía eléctrica solar, determina cuando se suministra energia electrica solar a la carga y cuando se debe conmutar un circuito para proporcionar energía de la red eléctrica convencional.

In the most basic form of the controller, it works by managing the solar electric energy, determines when solar electric power is supplied to the load and when to switch a circuit to provide power from the conventional electric grid.
