Solar O&M Insider

Welcome to the Solar O&M Insider, the first podcast series dedicated to solar PV operations, maintenance and asset management. This series is brought to you by Alectris, a global solar asset care innovation firm and is hosted by Glenna Wiseman of Identity3. At the recent PV Asset Management and O&M event in Hamburg, Germany optimizing solar operations and maintenance strategy to maximize asset yields was a top focus. In this episode, we talk with two senior solar professionals who spoke at the event and participated on its “Aiming for Operational Excellence” panel. With them we can recreate, if you will, the panel discussion. They also represent two key aspects of the industry sector, the developer and the O&M provider. First on the developer side is Stefan Müller, Co-Founder and Board Member at Enerparc AG. Based on industry research, Enerparc is a Top 10 global EPC company and number 1 in Germany. The company has connected 1.700 MW to the grid, operates 1.000 MW of its own PV power plants and globally has over 1.300 MW under O&M contract. This episode also features Vassilis Papaeconomou, Managing Director of Alectris and the SolarPower Europe O&M Task Force Leader.
