Solar PV modules are the backbone of any solar project, and their performance directly impacts energy yield and financial returns. However, over time, modules face challenges such as microcracks, potential-induced degradation (PID), hotspots, and manufacturing defects. To maximize performance and ensure long-term reliability, PV Module Inspection Services are indispensable.
While high-quality manufacturing standards exist, not all PV modules are created equal. Even minor defects can reduce plant efficiency and escalate maintenance costs. Comprehensive inspections identify hidden risks before they affect generation.
At SgurrEnergy, we deliver specialized inspection and quality assurance services tailored for utility-scale solar projects. Our inspections include:
Pre-Dispatch Factory Audits: Ensuring module quality during manufacturing through on-site factory inspections.
Pre-Shipment Inspection: Checking modules before delivery to confirm compliance with specifications.
Field Inspection & Testing: Using advanced equipment to detect cracks, delamination, and hotspots.
Electroluminescence (EL) & Infrared Thermography: High-precision techniques to uncover hidden defects invisible to the naked eye.
Performance Assurance – Guaranteeing modules meet project yield expectations.
Cost Reduction – Avoiding future replacement costs by identifying defects early.
Investor Security – Building confidence through transparent quality control.
Enhanced Lifespan – Extending module durability through proactive monitoring.
Inspections are not a one-time requirement. They should be integrated across different project stages:
Procurement Stage – Module audits during supplier selection.
Pre-Installation Stage – Quality checks before modules are mounted.
Operational Stage – Regular monitoring for long-term reliability.
Our dedicated team of experts leverages construction quality assurance, asset monitoring, and global best practices to ensure that solar PV plants perform at their peak capacity.
PV Module Inspection Services are the foundation of reliable, efficient, and bankable solar plants. With SgurrEnergy’s proven track record in solar design and engineering and quality assurance, developers can be confident in achieving long-term project success.
