The Envoy collects data from microinverters every 15 minutes using PLC.

Explanation:
The Envoy acts as the data collector and uses Power Line Communication to read each microinverter’s status and production over the building’s electrical wiring. It polls the inverters on a 15-minute cadence, collecting performance data that is then sent to the monitoring system. This 15-minute interval is chosen to provide useful trend data while keeping network traffic reasonable, and PLC is the method that makes the readout from the inverters possible without extra wiring. So the statement is correct.
