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.
1 Introduction This report describes both mathematical derivation and the resulting software for a model to estimate operation and maintenance (O&M) costs related to photovoltaic (PV) systems. The cost model estimates annual cost by adding up many services assigned or calculated for each year.
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.
The importance of maintenance in PV systems has garnered significant interest, prompting research and initiatives from various institutions to establish “best practices” for the O&M of PV systems .
Offers are generally expressed in Swiss francs per square meter to clean. The number of meters of PV module per kW p. Figure 11 shows cost per kW p of one cleaning. In total 79 plants wi th valid indication of cleaning cost have been analysed. The median is 14 CHF /kW p, the 10 th percentile 13 CHF /kW p, the 90 th percentile 23 CHF /kW p.
PV is a fixed cost business. In return, fluctuations in production, thus in sales volumes, directly affect the operation ratio (costs / sales), and so the gross margin. The main factor of uncertainty in the OMCs is the lifetime of inverters. shown in Table 8 (p. 31). If all cost drivers would apply, the cumulated annual OMCs per
