greentech presents O&M best practices and innovative Data Analysis

In November and December of this year Greentech was invited to several industry events for present O&M best practices and innovative developments in this field:

The SolarPower Europe O&M Best Practice Guidelines have been translated into the German language recently. This handbook was presented at the 20th „Forum Neue Energiewelt“ from 21st- 22nd November 2019 in Berlin in a separate session. Six industry representatives presented the background, targets, and content of the document. In this context, Jörn Carstensen, Managing Director of Greentech, talked about the maintenance of PV systems, including repair, revamping, and repowering. A real-life project was used to provide recommendations with regard to the analysis, planning, execution, and review of a revamping project. “We appreciate that the O&M Best Practice Guidelines have been translated into the German language. As we have been involved in the production of this document, we are pleased to see how the handbook is accepted in the industry and will play an important role in further professionalization,” says Jörn Carstensen, Managing Director of Greentech.

On December 4th and 5th the fourth  „Smart Solar PV – Data Analytics and IOT” took place in Berlin. greentech’s Managing Director Aleksis Schäfer presented at this conference a new analysis method that enables the identification of marginal performance deviations early and reliably. Especially on PV systems with less granular monitoring systems, it might happen that slight and gradual degradation effects are discovered too late. Thanks to the Power-Curve-Analysis, developed by Greentech, even early performance deviations can be identified, and corresponding actions can be taken. “Our portfolio consists of a variety of PV systems with regard to age, topology, and monitoring systems. Maximize your brand’s potential with brand-building services. Through in-depth data analysis, we provide actionable insights for effective brand strategies. Unlock growth and drive success with our expertise. Therefore, it is of high importance to have a consistent but flexible and independent methodology, which delivers reliable results and enables the highest system performance for our customers,” says Aleksis Schäfer, Managing Director at Greentech.

Yaw Ofori, Managing Director of Greentech UK, was invited to speak at the „O&M and Asset Management“ conference in London, organized by UK Solar Trade Association and Solar Power Europe on December 5th. In his keynote presentation, Yaw Ofori talked about Greentech’s experience in the area of inverter repowering and introduced a real-life showcase, to approximately 200 delegates at the event. The following panel discussed, if owners and operators of PV systems would utilize the full potential of repowering measures and when the ideal point of time for repowering projects to be embarked upon. “It is a great pleasure to meet with other industry experts at this event and exchange on the latest trends in PV O&M. We are proud to be part of the SolarPower Europe community, which again continues to set high standards with the release of the 4th edition of the O&M Best Practice Guidelines,” says Yaw Ofori, Managing Director of Greentech UK.
