6 FAQs about [Safety Management System of Photovoltaic Support Plant]
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.
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 .
What safety aspects should be considered during a PV plant operation?
Although most of the safety aspects are considered during the design and construction phases of PV plants, there are some elements that need to be considered during operations, most of which can be planned or mitigated: The safety systems and procedures in place.
What is operation & maintenance (O&M) of photovoltaic (PV) systems?
This guide considers Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of photovoltaic (PV) systems with the goal of reducing the cost of O&M and increasing its effectiveness. Reported O&M costs vary widely, and a more standardized approach to planning and delivering O&M can make costs more predictable.
Who is responsible for the safety of a PV power plant?
By having an O&M company under contract the responsibility of safety is internally transferred to the service contractor. The commissioning of a PV power plant is usually executed by the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) company engaged by the owner.
Are occupational health and safety guidelines valid for PV power plants?
The occupational health and safety (OHS) guidelines, described in section 5.2.3, are also valid for PV power plants in hot and humid climates such as that of Thailand. OHS guidelines should assist operating personnel and staff members to help with compliance and protect them from sudden situations, personal risks, and damage to their health.
