Typical Cases
PV digitalization and intelligent upgrading is the key choice to grasp
the new round of PV industry new opportunities
A 300MW PV station in Guangdong province
Need: The PV station covers an area of 6,000 acres. and employs a total of 10 O&M staff, including 1 station manager and 9 O&M staff, which results in tight O&M manpower and numerous O&M matters. How to realize accurate O&M and efficiently increase power generation?
Effect: The PV station has been using SmartComputation for 3 months, effectively identifying 5 branches with no current, 35 branches with low power generation, and 27 instances of low power generation in the inverter. After viewing and handling the situation on-site, the O&M staff increased the power generation by more than 1%.
A 75MW PV station in Guangdong province
Need: The PV station has been running for 6 years, covers an area of 1,500 acres, and has 6 O&M staff. As failure of PV panels can easily lead to fire accidents, how can we monitor the situation of each branch to prevent potential safety hazards?
Effect: After using SmartComputation for 3 months, we have timely alerted 5 instances of 'low insulation impedance' of inverters, 23 instances of power generation failure or serious low power generation in branches, and 26 instances of low power generation in inverters. These alerts have greatly reduced potential safety hazards.
Water PV station
Need: The PV station covers an area of 6,000 acres and is built on a number of separated fishponds. Cross-fishpond access is very inconvenient. The low water level of the fish ponds, 2+ meters from the PV panels, resulted in very inconvenient inspections. How can we improve the efficiency of the PV inspection?
Effect: After using SmartEye for 3 months, a total of 3 inspections have been conducted and a total of 1,081 bird droppings, hot spots and other problems were found. In terms of inspection efficiency, SmartEye usually completes a month's workload in 2 hours。
Agricultural PV Station
Need: he PV field consists of 5 plots separated in different townships, and the plots are surrounded by some large trees and farmland.
Effect: After 1 inspection using SmartEye, a total of 583 anomalies such as tree shading, hot spots, bird droppings, etc. were found, and the power generation was conservatively estimated to be increased by 2% after the O&M personnel handled anomalies.
