The solar industry welcomes clarity on how to minimise fire risk from solar PV systems, which in absolute terms is extremely low. “The core way to mitigate any risk is to ensure the highest possible quality in the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of solar systems.
Over the past few years, there have been a number of media reports linking photovoltaic power systems (PV) with fire. With the prevalence of PV systems now in the UK, an increase in incident reports is to be expected.
s equipped with solar power systems or in the systems themselves. Specifically, this study focuses on structural fire fighting in buildings and structures involving solar power systems utilizing solar panels that generate thermal and/or electrical energy, with a particular foc
PV systems comprise a number of system components that are common in all PV system installations. These are PV modules, mounting systems, connectors, cabling, isolators, power conversion/inverters, and switchgear. Larger systems may have a high voltage system and use HV equipment, including switchgear and transformers.
DC (direct current) produced by PV panels is converted to AC (alternating current) using inverters, for local use or to be sent to power grids. In addition to this, many systems will include a battery energy storage system (BESS) that provides storage of power for use when the sun is not shining.
In addition to this, many systems will include a battery energy storage system (BESS) that provides storage of power for use when the sun is not shining. The diagram below shows a photovoltaic system integrated with battery energy storage.
