PHOTOVOLTAIC MAINTENANCE

Photovoltaic maintenance in Campania

Savesystems - Salerno

Routine and extraordinary maintenance

For effective photovoltaic maintenance, you can turn to Savesystems in Castel San Giorgio, in the province of Salerno, which operates throughout the Campania region and neighbouring areas.

Regular maintenance of photovoltaic systems helps to identify anomalies and malfunctions that might otherwise go unnoticed and continue to worsen over time. Additionally, periodic monitoring aims to assess the system's actual productivity and promptly detect any drops in efficiency.

To achieve this, thorough analyses are conducted, focusing on different areas of the system. Together, monitoring and analysis reveal the system's true condition and allow for the evaluation of compliance with current standards and regulatory requirements.

Module cleaning

Photovoltaic systems are exposed to a wide range of environmental factors, and energy production efficiency quickly declines when the panel surface becomes dirty. Natural cleaning from rain is insufficient to maintain consistent solar module efficiency.

Cleaning them at the right time is crucial to maintain performance. With Savesystems' photovoltaic panel cleaning systems, washing can be carried out quickly, efficiently, and safely. Proper cleaning of photovoltaic panels is essential to avoid damaging them during the process. Cleaning with pure water is one of the safest, most effective, and fastest methods for professional solar maintenance. Demineralised water is obtained using reverse osmosis filtration systems.

Telescopic water-fed poles allow panels to be cleaned both at ground level and on rooftops without stepping on them. Water-fed brushes dissolve dirt and remove it with pure water.

Thermography of photovoltaic modules

Thermography, a technology also widely used in construction and medicine, involves the use of thermal cameras to investigate potential overheating of photovoltaic panels.

These devices capture thermal images through their sensors, making the surface temperature of objects readable via an easy-to-understand colour map.

This type of intervention is also part of the photovoltaic maintenance service in Campania offered by Savesystems in Castel San Giorgio, in the province of Salerno.

Revamping photovoltaic systems

Despite their longevity and an estimated lifespan of around 30 years, Italian photovoltaic systems established under the Conto Energia programme are beginning to show signs of ageing and experiencing production declines.

To help owners restore these systems to their original capacity, or even improve them, a specific intervention called photovoltaic revamping has been introduced. Guidelines for this process were outlined in 2016 by the Energy Services Manager (GSE).

How does photovoltaic system revamping work?
It does not solely involve regenerating photovoltaic panels but encompasses a wide range of interventions classified by the Energy Services Manager (GSE) as either significant or non-significant.

Significant interventions include the replacement, removal, and reinstallation of main components, such as modules and inverters; partial or complete relocation of modules; modification of the grid feed-in regime, or changes to the connection point identification code.

If such modifications are made to a system with a capacity exceeding 3 kW, the owner must notify the GSE within 60 days of completing the intervention. Failure to do so may result in the risk of losing the right to incentives during inspections.

These interventions must not increase the system's nominal capacity by more than 5% for systems up to 20 kW or more than 1% for those with a capacity exceeding 20 kW.

Administrative and authorisation services

Savesystems offers a comprehensive range of services for managing renewable energy systems, particularly in administrative and fiscal matters, energy performance monitoring, maintenance, and insurance. Our company facilitates handling increasingly complex procedures related to photovoltaic maintenance and renewable energies in general, which could otherwise jeopardise the system's financial returns and technical compliance.

Asset Management Services

Savesystems provides its clients, owners of large photovoltaic systems, with comprehensive Asset Management services, including compliance with industry regulations and, in particular, all obligations related to the GSE and the Customs Agency (formerly UTF). Additionally, our company offers financial and fiscal management services for special-purpose entities owning energy production systems, including GSE invoicing, financial statement management, and calculation of corporate and property tax (IMU). We also offer specialised services in cadastral matters. Lastly, Savesystems can provide Asset Management services in combination with Operation & Maintenance services, offering integrated and economically advantageous solutions.
