BizStream Solar Dashboard

The BizStream Solar Dashboard is an internal project created to show the BizStream team the impact of our solar panels in terms of how much money is being saved and their positive effect on the environment through real-time data.

Project Goals

During a hackathon event, a team of one developer (Mark Schmidt) and one designer (Rex Rainey) challenged themselves to create a custom internal dashboard showing real-time data and historical stats from our rooftop solar panels.

  • Real-time data needed to be represented in kilowatt-hours, the number of trees saved, and the amount of money saved. These representations needed to display the lifetime totals and the values calculated from the beginning of the day to the current viewing time.
  • Implement a minimal viable product (MVP) in 8 hours.
  • The dashboard needed to be displayed on a 60-inch high-definition TV.

Results

Here are our stats as of this writing… and they’re increasing every day!

Ever since we had solar panels installed we wanted to do something interesting with the data we were collecting. So we harnessed our internal skills to put together a real-time dashboard that’s a useful and fun way to visualize the benefits we’ve gained since going solar.
