Key responsibilities:
Track daily solar generation, inverter performance, alarms, and plant availability via SCADA; compare output to benchmarks (P50/P90) and report performance regularly (daily - monthly).
Perform scheduled maintenance per Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM ) guidelines, troubleshoot faults (inverters, strings, communication, protection), conduct inspections/testing (thermography, IV curve, electrical), and coordinate major repairs with service providers.
Plan and oversee module cleaning, assess soiling losses, and ensure safe rooftop cleaning practices.
Ensure Direct Current/ Alternating Current systems are safe and compliant; inspect key components (isolators, cabling, earthing, protection systems), support LockOut/TagOut (LOTO) procedures, and maintain incident records.
Analyze faults, conduct root cause analysis, monitor PR and availability, drive improvements in energy yield, and maintain accurate technical documentation.
Maintain records per Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) and energy regulations, support ISO 50001 reporting, and ensure proper documentation of maintenance, safety, and testing activities.
Inspect mounting systems, roof interfaces, and drainage; report structural risks and ensure safe access systems.
Maintain clean, organized work areas and ensure proper storage of tools and materials in line with 6S principles.
Carry out any additional tasks assigned.
