Troubleshooting the issue of improper water drainage

Located in New Bedford, MA, First Highland is an industrial real estate development firm known for its innovative specialties, including acquisition, repositioning services, and more.

Challenge

The facility’s 403kW DC rooftop solar system experienced multiple system failures and needed a thorough root-cause analysis and troubleshooting.

Solution

Solect identified the problem – pooling water that impeded proper system operation – and inserted spacers under the solar array’s racking to facilitate appropriate water drainage. With the issue addressed by our O&M team, First Highland’s system received a new lease on life and resumed robust production.
