NV Energy - Power Flow Plotter

General Commentary

Easy to use alternative to NV Energy's Usage Graph.

Focused on simplicity, this application does exactly as it sounds. Once a file is input into the webapp, the app will clean/group the data into Day/Month/Year groupings and present the data as 3 easy to read charts.

This application is meant to be a nice-to-have utility and nothing more. It was created by me and is not affiliated with NV Energy or any solar company/group.


Description

Built with the use of the PapaParse and Chart.js, the application is concise and simple. The application simply reads in the file, filters down to only the needed columns, groups the values into the proper period types, and outputs to the 3 charts.

  • PapaParse:
    • Purpose: parser for csv files
    • Reason for choice: PapaParse is one of the few threaded parsers available in the browser while still being reliable. Being threaded ensures the browser won't hang and the parsing will be quick, giving the end user the best possible experience.
  • Chart.js
    • Purpose: chart creation
    • Reason for choice: Chart.js is the industry standard for web based charting. Chart.js is highly customizable, easy to implement, and works in a wide variety of browsers.
