Challenges and recommendations for future work of BIPVs with ESSs are introduced. Generally, an energy storage system (ESS) is an effective procedure for minimizing the fluctuation of electric energy produced by renewable energy resources for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) applications.
1 Introduction This guide considers Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of photovoltaic (PV) systems with the goal of reducing the cost of O&M and increasing its effectiveness. Reported O&M costs vary widely, and a more standardized approach to planning and delivering O&M can make costs more predictable.
Mainstream investors, however, need to feel confident about the risk and return of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems before committing funds. A major influence on risk and return for PV is operations and maintenance (O&M)—but O&M practices and costs vary widely across the United States, making these variables difficult for investors to predict.
Members of the working group have discussed these results and are currently recommending 0.5% for large systems and 1% of system initial cost per year for small systems as a reasonable expectation of PV system O&M costs. These heuristics inform an expectation of PV system O&M costs.
The definition of the PV system to be maintained shall include PV modules, the support structure, disconnects, inverter(s), monitoring equipment, and all other appurtenances to make the PV system complete, grid- connected, and operational. 104
In most PV operation contracts, energy will be the driving factor of whether the system is operating as expected. EPC guarantees, operator guarantees, owner measure of ROI, and other considerations for a contract are mostly based on whether the system produced energy as it was expected to.
