The array is healthy and on-target overall. One thermal hotspot and a soiling zone are costing real revenue and are cheap to fix.
This ~1.2 MW array is producing at about 92% of its weather-adjusted potential with 99.6% uptime — a healthy asset. The losses that exist are concentrated and fixable: a thermal hotspot on string 9 (inspect; fault/fire-risk) and a soiling band costing ~12% locally (clean; fast payback). Perimeter and shading are clear. Net: act on two spots this week and the array returns to near-optimal.
OBSERVED seen in imagery · AI-INFERRED model estimate
A localised hot cell pattern indicates a likely fault or micro-crack — a fire-risk and yield drag if left. Flagged for inspection.
A ~200 m² dust/soiling band is depressing output ~12% locally — cleaning cost is far below the energy recovered.
Weather-adjusted output is ~92% of theoretical — healthy for the array age; losses are concentrated, not system-wide.
Perimeter intact; no new shading from vegetation growth detected versus the prior pass.
No dark (offline) strings beyond the flagged hotspot; uptime ~99.6%.
Each question is scored 0–10 and labelled OBSERVED (seen in imagery) or AI-INFERRED (modelled).
Yes — weather-adjusted output is ~92% of theoretical with 99.6% uptime; losses are localised, not system-wide.
One hotspot on string 9 shows a hot-cell pattern consistent with a fault or micro-crack — inspect before it spreads.
A north-west soiling band is suppressing output ~12% locally; cleaning cost is well below the recovered energy.
Perimeter is intact and no new vegetation shading appeared versus the prior pass.
Send a crew to string 9 and the soiling zone this week — the two places measurably costing revenue.
The soiling zone alone is shaving ~12% off one section’s output. At this site’s scale that is roughly $700–1,100 of lost generation this month against a cleaning cost of a few hundred dollars — a clear net gain. The hotspot, if it degrades a string, is a larger avoided loss.
Dispatch O&M to the flagged hotspot; thermal/micro-crack faults are both a yield and fire risk.
Schedule a targeted clean of the north-west band — payback is days, not months.
Confirm production recovers and the performance ratio trend flattens out.
This solar asset is performing well: weather-adjusted output is about 92% of its theoretical potential and uptime is ~99.6%, so there is no system-wide problem. The value of this report is that it pinpoints exactly where the small losses are and what they cost.
Two items are worth acting on. A thermal hotspot on string 9 reads as a likely fault or micro-crack — both a yield drag and a fire-risk — so it should be inspected before it spreads. A soiling band on the north-west of the array is suppressing local output by about 12%; cleaning it back pays for itself quickly.
Everything else checks out: the perimeter is intact, no new vegetation shading has appeared since the last pass, and no strings are dark beyond the flagged hotspot.
For an owner or O&M team the takeaway is triage: instead of inspecting the whole site, send a crew to string 9 and the soiling zone this week — the two places the imagery says are actually costing money.
This sample demonstrates 4 of the 8 sections your live report includes. Highlighted rows are shown above; the rest are generated for paying accounts.
This sample uses a stylised panel-array view to illustrate the analysis. Production reports combine dated satellite passes with production/inverter data and, where available, thermal or aerial layers, comparing performance, soiling and hotspots pass-over-pass. Financial figures are illustrative.
