5 FAQs about [Lubrication of solar power generation equipment]

What does CleanMax do when a solar plant is installed?

As a solar plant is installed, engineers at CleanMax prepare a schedule for preventive maintenance. This includes, but is not limited to, adjustments, cleaning, lubrication, repairs, replacements, and the extension of equipment life. At least twice a year, O&M personnel conduct a general inspection of the installation-site.

What does a solar power plant do?

It includes inspection, supervision, sending signals and messages, and receiving signals from the environment about irradiation. At CleanMax, we understand that our clients expect the solar power plants to achieve high levels of power generation.

What is an example of soiling in a PV system?

Examples include: Flooding (high rainfall; water intrusion into enclosures). Soiling reduces the energy output of the PV array and can lead to localized hot-spot failures if the soiling is uneven. Efforts should be taken to reduce uneven soiling, for example, from bird droppings.

Why do solar plant operators need monitored data?

Solar plant operators require monitored data to analyze and identify the root cause of performance issues observed by the operator. It is critical to identify the root cause of failure to reduce maintenance costs when dispatching service providers.

Why is combining solar and storage a good idea?

Monetizing and combining all the different value propositions of combining solar and storage is an ongoing area of research and business model innovation, and will increase the market for PV and the need for financing. The more interactive nature of battery dispatch (charge/discharge) increases the “operations” part of O&M considerably.
