how can I monitor usage of my solar and hydro system?

Hi all,

Hopefully a simple question from someone who is new to all of this.

I have purchased a property with:

a Victron Energy Multiplus 24|3000|70 Invertor

a Powerplus Energy LiFe2433P Battery

a Plasmatronics PL20 Solar Controller

a Platypus Power Hydroelectric System

a Sunstar SS-60C Charge Load Controller

The Solar and the Hydro feed into the battery, which feeds into the Invertor, then onto the house.

I would like to monitor how much energy is generated and how much is utilised. Preferably not just an instantaneous reading but something that is logged over time.

Can someone point me to a product that can fulfil this, as at the moment, I have no data to guide me.

Thanks, Kai

p.s. I'd be happy if the combined power generation (Solar and Hydro) is monitored, but individually would be great too.
