Hail

Solar modules are tested to withstand an impact from a 1" ball of ice traveling at 50 miles per hour. But more and more solar asset owners are learning that this standard does not always reflect real-life conditions, that there's a lot more impact involved than just ice on tempered glass.

High Winds

The growing trend in solar module manufacturing is to save on materials costs and reduce weight. But, as a result, solar developers find themselves dealing with a generation of solar modules that are less resilient to conditions and more likely to be damaged by high-wind events.

Floods

Flooding of solar farms is becoming more common as the effects of climate change result in larger and more frequent severe weather events. Last year saw an unprecedented number of hurricanes and storms in the Southeast and mid-Atlantic U.S., with a resulting impact on solar assets in the region.

Fires

Of all the severe weather threats facing solar installations in the American West and Southeast, brushfires present some of the most complex restoration challenges. Unlike hail or wind events — where the damage is largely mechanical — fire affects solar assets in multiple ways simultaneously, and not all of it is visible from the ground.
