Solar panels experience a decline in output over time. Environmental factors and component failures can also contribute to lower output as solar plants age. First-generation solar plants were very often installed without a monitoring system in place. That means that plants now reaching end of inverter life may be greatly underperforming. A dead inverter could go completely undetected, causing a significant financial loss. Every day that goes by without detecting a plant failure means a higher LOSS OF MONEY.
On older plants that do have monitoring, few are synced in real-time with diagnostics tools. To protect from poor plant output, the best option is to retrofit older solar plants, including those with inadequate monitoring, with a professional monitoring solution. An easy-to-install (retrofit) hardware solution combined with the right software tools is the best option.
Potential business for retrofitting plants with monitoring.

Wood Mackenzie estimates that approximately 4.2 GWDC of solar assets will run into premature failures in 2020, with this annual total jumping to 36 GWDC in 2025. Retrofitting exiting sites with solar plant monitoring is a win-win for plant owners and O&M providers. Professional monitoring will ensure that that issues are detected immediately, the plant owners and other stakeholders make more money, and the solar O&M provider earns more business.
