3 FAQs about [The hazards of laying photovoltaic panels]
Are photovoltaic solar panels safe?
The risks associated with the use of renewables are often overlooked and this poses serious problems for insurers. However, we are keen to support our customers and to provide guidance on how photovoltaic solar panel systems can be installed and used safely.
What are the risks of building a solar farm?
Building on flood plains for example could mean that the solar farm is at risk of flooding or water damage. Building near archaeological sites also presents risks which would be reflected in higher insurance premiums. 5.
Does water scarcity affect the use of photovoltaic systems?
Although water scarcity directly influences the use of water in photovoltaic systems, there have been a low number of studies related to water scarcity around the world. Unfortunately, they are not reliable due to gaps and inconsistency in measurement.
