Common Operations & Maintenance Questions

How is a commercial solar O&M agreement structured?

O&M agreements can be flexible and structured to best meet the needs of the client and the project. We offer agreements for one-time dispatch, 1-year term, or multi-year terms to ensure that a variety of options are available.

What common issues happen to commercial solar systems?

Inverter performance issues & degradation, wiring and connection issues, DAS system function issues, system degradation, broken modules, string outages, soiling, loose racking, shading issues, significant weather events (hail, high wind, etc.), pest incursion and landscape growth can all impact large commercial systems over time. An ongoing O&M agreement helps prevent issues and maintain the performance of your system.

How is the performance of my commercial solar system monitored?

Namaste Solar’s Performance Analyst will review your portfolio’s performance and monitor alerts and alarms via a web-based system monitoring platform. When dispatchable issues arise, our team will reach out to notify you of the issue and request approval to mobilize O&M technicians to respond. Once approval is received, we will dispatch O&M technicians to get the issue resolved.

How can I choose a top O&M company?

Choose a stable, long-term partner with a strong track record: Since 2005 we have installed more than 13,500 stand-alone systems in 40+ permitting jurisdictions and five states, and our Operations and Maintenance (O&M) team has serviced over 500 sites ranging from 10kW to 10MW. The knowledge that comes with this experience enables our O&M team to troubleshoot systems quickly and efficiently, saving our customers time and money.

How does solar O&M work protect my investment, ensure optimal system performance, and help avoid costly repairs?

Through regularly scheduled maintenance work, we are identifying and mitigating smaller, less expensive issues which prevents them from growing into larger, more expensive issues and impacting the projects overall performance and ROI.

How big does my solar array need to be to justify O&M work?

We have serviced systems ranging from 10 kW to 10 MW. The level of services can vary for a particular site based on several considerations – system size and type, location, climate conditions, customer needs, etc.  We can custom-tailor O&M services plans to best fit your specific system size, and budgetary needs.
