Technical FAQs 4

What are the maintenance strategies for solar PV systems?

In literature, three general maintenance strategies for solar PV systems are mentioned: corrective, preventive, and predictive maintenance. Fig. 8 shows the evolution of maintenance strategies over time, along with examples of maintenance activities for PV systems. Fig. 8. Evolution of maintenance strategies.

Why is maintenance management important for PV power plants?

Therefore, maintenance management is essential for reliable and effective operation of PV power plants, ensuring uninterrupted system operation and minimizing downtime. Compared to well-established technologies such as hydro, thermal, and wind, the O&M processes for PV systems are not yet fully structured in many operating companies .

Do photovoltaic systems need maintenance?

The expansion of photovoltaic systems emphasizes the crucial requirement for effective operations and maintenance, drawing insights from advanced maintenance approaches evident in the wind industry. This review systematically explores the existing literature on the management of photovoltaic operation and maintenance.

How do you decide if an energy storage system should be replaced?

Determine criteria to decide whether to repair or replace a component; criteria to decide whether to “cannibalize” a string of modules to source replacement modules or to order new parts; and criteria to decide if an energy storage system with declining energy storage capacity should be replaced.
