Operations & Maintenance Services
Once a PV system has been commissioned, we recommend that ongoing performance metrics be logged and monitored by a Data Acquisition System (DAS) for subsequent analysis. Using online tools, our Service Department will monitor the functional health of the PV system to ensure that system parameters stay within acceptable thresholds.
Our service technicians have extensive experience with PV in both residential and commercial environments and are NABCEP certified solar PV installers. They have hands-on experience and training in all aspects of photovoltaic technology, including technical design, project management, installation, system monitoring (DAS), and related technologies.

Operations & Maintenance Client
Wells Fargo
System Size: 260kW
After the successful competition of 10 projects on Wells Fargo branches in Colorado, Namasté Solar entered into an O&M contract to safeguard the systems’ ongoing operation at peak performance. As one of the largest financiers of renewable energy projects in the United States, Wells Fargo has a keen understanding of the relationship between system performance and financial ROI. Namasté Solar conducts annual inspections and prepares easy to understand reports to explain how each system is producing energy compared to initial expectations. Additionally, our NABCEP-certified service team performs preventative maintenance including fuse and string testing, checking for loose wiring, warranty replacements and inspecting equipment for physical aging issues. Similar to changing oil in a car, simple preventative maintenance ensures the long-term health of a solar system, maximizes production, and protects our client’s financial investment.
