PV Inspections with Aerial Thermography
Maximize solar efficiency and prevent failures with drone-based aerial thermography. Detect panel defects, hotspots, shading issues, and wiring faults across the entire site quickly and accurately.
By identifying anomalies early, operators can reduce downtime, improve energy output, and extend asset lifespan, ensuring optimal performance with minimal manual effort.
How Aerial Thermography Transforms PV Inspections
Aerial thermography uses infrared imaging to detect hidden issues like hotspots, cracks, faulty connections, and shading problems that are invisible to the naked eye. Drone-mounted thermal cameras scan entire solar sites quickly, providing a faster and more accurate alternative to manual inspections.
y capturing high-resolution thermal data, operators can pinpoint faults, prioritize repairs, and optimize maintenance schedules, improving energy production and reducing operational costs.
Integrating Field Data into Areg AI
Areg.AI collects data from all connected field devices—panels, meters, strings, and more—bringing it into a single, easy-to-use platform. This integration provides a complete, real-time view of the solar plant, enabling operators to monitor performance, track trends, and identify issues without manual effort.
The platform organizes and processes data efficiently, ensuring accurate insights for better decision-making, optimized maintenance schedules, and improved energy generation.
Identifying and Prioritizing PV System Anomalies
Aerial thermography captures thermal and visual data to detect hotspots, defective modules, shading losses, and electrical failures across a solar site.
Anomalies are classified by severity and mapped to the Digital Twin, allowing operators to visualize issues in real-time. Automated prioritization helps maintenance teams focus on critical faults first, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.
