Analysis of Maintenance Conditions for Small Photovoltaic Equipment

소형 태양광발전설비의 유지관리 실태 분석

This study investigated power generation of photovoltaic equipment at detached houses. The study estimated monthly mean generation according to maintenance conditions that included module cleaning, inspection into generation, cleaning of module and photovoltaic generation. At analysis upon generation, households with periodical module cleaning and inspection into generation, clean module and good generation conditions had high generation. 20-years of PV equipment life varied much depending upon maintenance conditions. Users should keep module clean and inspect generation regularly and put PV equipment at the place with good solar radiation.
