We can offer a maintenance package in the form of a full PV heath check (recommended annually) which involves a visual inspection of the cables, hardware and panels using a drone as well as full electrical testing of all panels, strings, inverters and protective hardware.
Our maintenance packages include:
- System-wide visual inspection, including all electrical hardware and cabling, to detect any insurable damage
- Aerial inspection of panels using drones to assess their condition, identifying any dirt buildup or damage
- Thorough electrical testing of solar panels and strings, encompassing DC electrical installation tests and inspections
- Comprehensive electrical testing of inverters, isolators, and protective devices, covering AC electrical installation tests and inspections
- Professional advice on whether solar panels require cleaning, accompanied by a quotation if deemed necessary
- Detailed service report outlining the system’s current status and any recommended remedial actions
A maintenance package offers several benefits that contribute to the long-term performance, efficiency, and reliability of the solar energy system:
- Maximised Performance: Regular maintenance ensures that solar panels operate at peak performance levels. Cleaning panels, checking for shading, and optimising system components help maximise energy production, ensuring that your investment generates the expected returns.
- Extended Equipment Lifespan: Routine inspections and maintenance can identify potential issues early, allowing for timely repairs or replacements. By addressing problems promptly, you can extend the lifespan of your solar panels, inverters, and other system components, avoiding costly downtime and premature failure.
- Improved Energy Output: Over time, dust, dirt, debris, and other environmental factors can accumulate on solar panels, reducing their efficiency. Regular cleaning and maintenance remove these contaminants, allowing sunlight to reach the solar cells more effectively and increasing energy output.
- Minimised Downtime: Scheduled maintenance visits can help prevent unexpected system failures and downtime. By proactively identifying and addressing issues, you can minimise disruptions to your operations and maintain a reliable source of renewable energy.
- Optimised Financial Returns: A well-maintained solar energy system is more likely to meet or exceed its expected energy production targets. By maximising energy output and minimising downtime, a maintenance package helps ensure that you realize the full financial benefits of your investment in solar power.
- Expert Insights and Recommendations: Professional maintenance providers have the expertise and experience to identify potential performance issues and recommend optimisations to enhance system efficiency. Their insights can help you make informed decisions to further improve the performance and reliability of your solar energy system.
- Safety and Risk Mitigation: Regular maintenance includes safety checks to identify and address any hazards associated with the solar panel installation. By mitigating safety risks, you protect your employees, customers, and property from potential accidents or injuries.
- Environmental Benefits: Solar energy systems contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change. By maintaining your solar panels, you ensure that they continue to operate efficiently and sustainably, maximising their environmental benefits over their operational lifespan.
- Peace of Mind: Investing in a maintenance package provides peace of mind, knowing that your solar energy system is being cared for by professionals who are dedicated to optimising its performance, reliability, and longevity.
Our maintenance packages offer a cost-effective way to protect your investment, maximise energy production, and ensure the long-term success of your renewable energy initiative.
