A PV module has an average life expectancy of over 30 years. The design life of the inverter is usually over 20 years, but this is not always achieved. In the event of such a breakdown, replacement at a reasonable cost is not a problem. For the system as a whole it is possible to identify possible losses of efficiency – at least on an annual basis – using publicly available insolation data. Our experts can analyse the cause quickly and rectify the problem, if so desired.
