Hail risk to utility scale photovoltaic systems
Hail damage has become a significant financial threat to utility scale photovoltaic (PV) systems, leading to a tightening insurance market with rising premiums and deductibles for projects in known high-hail areas. Insurers are increasingly recognising automated hail stow as vital for risk control.
This guide outlines hail risk and stowage strategies for PV assets, emphasising the necessity of robust hail mitigation in project design, operations, and insurance approaches. Hail stow is essential for protecting PV systems in high risk areas.
