Community solar as an industry has three key concerns that developers, owner-operators, and other stakeholders must address in order to see continued portfolio expansion as well as return on investment.
When we launched Omnidian back in 2016, solar O&M (operations and maintenance) was an afterthought in the industry. Everyone wanted solar installed, but the post-installation experience didn’t go much farther than reactive – and often slow – truck rolls for “Help! My system is down!” messages or alerts. But we thought differently.
Pivot Energy, a leading renewable energy independent power producer, is at the forefront of the community solar movement. Pivot has over 380 community solar projects completed or in development that are estimated to offset over 1.8 megatons of CO2 annually. Kelly Hadayia, Pivot’s Vice President of Revenue Operations, has witnessed much of this growth.
Each stage of development brings challenges to your scalability and growth, and solar maintenance services are no exception. That’s because they’re necessary and ongoing for the lifetime of your assets, which is a minimum 25+ year investment. As such, the very nature of solar O&M can present a major portion of your scalability challenges.
With 62% of solar assets having major issues, your solar maintenance and operations plan needs to be exceptional, and performance assurance can get you there.
