Replacment of PV Equipment
Over time there is a normal decline in the efficiency of PV panels which is estimated to be around 1%/year where in older installations it is more apparent as this is translated into revenue.
Usually the actual drop in efficiency is even more than 1% due to the damages of some panels from various causes such as P.I.D effect, small cracks in the panels, etc.
To the question of what is the optimal time to replace the panels of a PV park.
Obviously the answer depends on many parameters such as:
- The selling price of energy.
- The power of the PV park.
- The cost of replacement with new equipment (the panels, after a study if necessary on the cables or the metal structure supporting the frames).
- Tax incentives.
Contact us so we can give you an offer to replace your panels, as the selling price of these varies from time to time.
