A practical guide to improving photovoltaic power plant lifecycle performance and output Photovoltaic (PV) System Delivery as Reliable Energy Infrastructure introduces a preventive analytic maintenance for photovoltaic systems engineering, the Repowering- planning approach, as a structured integrated system delivery process. A team of veteran photovoltaics experts delivers a robust discussion of the lessons learned from mature industries-including aerospace, utilities, rail, marine, and automotive-as applied to the photovoltaics industry. The book offers real-world examples of the impact of photovoltaics to all stakeholders during the concept, specification, operations, maintenance, and Repowering- phases. In each chapter, readers will learn to develop RAMS specifications, data, and tasks while becoming familiar with the inherent benefits of how these affect the cost of design and development, maintenance, spares, and systems operation. The authors also explain when to consider Repower
