It is true that solar energy systems are very low maintenance. These systems, however, are just like other revenue generating assets. They need to be well-maintained to ensure maximum electricity production, decrease costs, and simultaneously increase revenue. By keeping one’s solar system at peak efficiency via GenRenew’s solar preventative maintenance program, one can achieve maximum return on investment (ROI). In addition to generating revenue, properly maintained solar systems can last for many years.
What Is Solar Preventative Maintenance?
Solar preventative maintenance (PM) comprises a set of procedures designed to ensure all system components are working as they should be. Professionals will conduct a comprehensive test of all electrical and physical components of the array. In addition to functioning properly, preventative maintenance also helps to prevent technical issues from further deteriorating the system.
Solar preventative maintenance should be facilitated at least once a year. The frequency, however, depends on the size of the system. Corrective maintenance measures will be applied upon the detection of signs that something might be wrong with the array.
Why Is Solar Preventative Maintenance Important?
Solar preventative maintenance is important as it ensures the maximum efficiency, system uptime, and yield of a solar array. By maintaining one’s systems regularly, they can stay in better working condition and ensure that potential malfunctions can be effectively managed. One should note that solar arrays contribute financial value to their owners. If a technical issue arises, some of that value is lost.
That’s why investing in a preventative maintenance program is imperative. One should not risk sitting back and forgetting about maintaining their solar systems; it allows larger issues to arise. These events can compromise the safety of the system or impact your overall production.
