One of the most effective ways to monitor solar panels for early signs of problems is by using thermal imaging. . Abstract—Utility-scale solar arrays require specialized inspection methods for detecting faulty panels. Photovoltaic (PV) panel faults caused by weather, ground leakage, circuit issues, temperature, environment, age, and other damage can take many forms but often symptomatically exhibit temperature. . Plan, carry out, and analyze your photovoltaic inspections using drones and AI to maximize the performance of your solar plants. Inspect Collect your own panel imaging on-site 2. It's applied by trained, highly skilled technicians using handheld testing kits during only ideal. . Solar drones give solar companies, utility-scale PV power plant operators, and drone service providers the high-resolution visual and thermal data they need in minutes—all while keeping technicians safely on the ground.
