6 FAQs about [Risk factors of solar photovoltaic power plants]

Are energy yield forecasts a risk factor for solar PV projects?

Overly optimistic energy yield forecasts are a key risk factor in solar PV projects. In some markets, there may be specific instances where the risk needs to be shared (e.g. in relation to reliance on local source materials) where resources may be affected by labour disputes, embargos or other political risks.

Are solar PV projects a risk?

Generally solar PV projects are not constructed in high density urban areas so this would not typically be considered a significant project risk. Discovery of artefacts can cause delays and costs as there may be legal or other requirements in relation to reporting them and permitting archaeological study.

What is photovoltaic risk analysis?

Photovoltaic (PV) risk analysis serves to identify and reduce the risks associated with investments in PV projects. The key challenge in reacting to failures or avoiding them at a reasonable cost is the ability to quantify and manage the various risks.

Are solar panels a risk factor for a solar power grid?

analysis indicated that the greatest risk for an electric power grid with solar PV systems was weather causing the solar panels to receive less sunlight than expected. This is a crucial factor for a self-sustaining PV system, but it is less important for a large-scale system comprised of both renewable (solar) and non-renewable resources.

Is maintenance a risk for solar PV projects?

Maintenance is generally regarded as a low risk for solar PV projects in developed markets. In many markets there is now a deep pool of trained operators and the operations and maintenance activities are not complex or expensive. In developing markets, large scale solar projects have only been installed and entered into operation in recent years.

What risks does a private partner take for a solar PV project?

The Private Partner takes the risk of obtaining all relevant licences for the construction and operation of the solar PV project and for intellectual property infringement. The risk allocation for health and safety will, in part, depend upon operating responsibility for the asset.
