SOLAR PANEL ABATEMENT

Do you need Solar Roofing services?

Solar roofing is the way of the future. Countless people are ready to get off the grid and start generating energy for themselves. Protecting such a large investment in solar on your roof helps retain the value of your property. While a passing bird or two won’t damage your photovoltaic (PV) system in the long-run, pigeons nesting under solar panels can and will. Pigeon proofing your solar panels is an essential part of keeping them clean and safe for years to come

Solar panels don’t go literally on top of the roof, but on top of railing that sits on your roof, providing a space between the modules and the actual roof. Pigeons like to place their nests there as it offers a nice shady area and protects them from the weather and predators. The pigeons may also be sitting or walking around on the panels.

While experts say the birds are not interested in foraging on solar panels or eating the wires, their poop is a concern factor. And boy, is that a problem with birds. Remember that anything that obstructs the panel from facing the sun directly may affect is energy efficiency. If the problem is serious (as in too many birds and too many droppings) it can render a whole solar array useless.

Bird droppings are also acidic, which can compromise the aluminum frame of the solar panels, leading to an increased rate of corrosion. The accumulation of nest materials and bird droppings may create hotspots leading to subsequent failures of cells within the panels.

When birds build nests under solar panels, that may also back up water when it rains, allowing water to pool or diverting it to sensitive areas. Even worse, when birds build nests under solar panels, they attract other pests, such as squirrels and rodents. And they can chew through a solar panel’s electrical wiring, which can provoke short circuits and, in extreme situations, fires. 

Bird mesh is one of the most effective bird-proofing options for home solar systems.  We will first clean and sanitize the area,  getting rid of the debris, nest material and droppings before installing the mesh, which makes it difficult for birds to nest beneath the panels. Designed to seal the area under your solar panels, we install the bird mesh that clips directly to the panels and runs around the edges of the entire array.
