High Tech Solar O&M

Welcome to the Solar O&M Insider, the first podcast series dedicated to solar PV operations, maintenance and asset management. This series is brought to you by Alectris, a global solar asset care innovation firm. Glenna Wiseman of Identity3 is the host. The world’s first report on how new digital technologies could be applied to solar PV was issued by SolarPower Europe this past October.
