The new iPhone/iPod Touch monitoring application is part of SunPower's existing Monitoring Services, offered to their customers as a tool for keeping track of information related to electricity generated by the installed SunPower solar modules at the user's location – yard, rooftop, etc. A user can easily see energy savings on an hourly, monthly and annual basis.

SunPower already supplied their customers with in-home wall-mounted wireless enabled LCD monitor systems which provide power production and cumulative energy information. The fact that is accessible over the internet from just about anywhere makes it quite useful. Now, with the addition of the iPhone application, customers will truly be able to access all the solar energy info they need while on the go.

The application is available for download from Apple's App Store. Existing and new customers can use it immediately, while prospective customers can download a demo to try it out and see how it works.
