Causes of Fires in the Renewable Energy Sector
The electrical and/or mechanical technologies used in the renewable energy sector increase the probability of fire. One of the common causes is damage to the inverter or its casing. Fires in wind turbines are often due to lightning strikes or technical faults. Electrical short circuits represent one of the main sources of risk in solar systems, due to malfunctions in solar panels or the electrical system, which can be aggravated by adverse weather conditions.
Safety for the environment and for renewable energy systems makes Firecom’s products an effective, risk-free solution for wind turbines and solar PV plants.
