The solar industry welcomes clarity on how to minimise fire risk from solar PV systems, which in absolute terms is extremely low. “The core way to mitigate any risk is to ensure the highest possible quality in the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of solar systems.
There is 1 fatality recorded in the database, but the fire is known to have originated elsewhere in the house and not within the PV system. However, we strongly suspect a degree of under-reporting, especially amongst solar farms. Where PV systems have been the cause of fires, some themes emerge.
Over the past few years, there have been a number of media reports linking photovoltaic power systems (PV) with fire. With the prevalence of PV systems now in the UK, an increase in incident reports is to be expected.
Of the 23 FRS included in the database, 17 confirmed that they have SOPs (or other guidance) for dealing with fires on properties with solar PV systems, however this was inconsistently reported across incidents involving the same FRS. Only one FRS specifically advised that they did not have any guidance for this situation (PVF0056).
Therefore, the reliability of PV systems is very high, resulting in a low frequency of documented fires. However, when the numbers of existing and planned PV systems are considered, even with a very high reliability and low failure rate, the potential for PV fires remains significant.
This hazard grows if the support beams are weakened during a fire. The modules could also fall during the fire, endangering both inhabitants and first responders. Be careful during the designing process and consult with the structural engineer if necessary. Always inform firefighters of the presence of a PV system on the roof. 4.
