In order to ensure that the photovoltaic systems are installed, operated, and maintained in a safe and reliable manner, FSEC and members of Florida’s solar industry work closely with code officials in nearly every municipality in the state. This effort includes:
- working closely with permitting officials to answer questions about PV technology
- advising inspectors on recent code changes
- conducting system installation inspections and provided feedback to installers
- ensuring that system installers provided on-site training to facility managers
- training over 100 facility managers on operation and maintenance of the systems
- ensuring that detailed documentation was provided
As a result, municipalities and school districts are better able to handle future solar installations and maintenance.
