EDF New Energies wishes, in the framework of its economic analysis site, to make a review of the current state of its Photovoltaic plant. Located in the department of Aude (11), a surface area of 23 hectares and over 70,000m² of exposure surface, the park has an annual production capacity of 9175MWh since it was put into service in 2008.
Client & Project Manager
Features
To complete this particular mission, we equipped the Diadès drone with a thermal camera. It detects faulty elements which show particularly increased heat on the surface of the photovoltaic panel.
- Surface area: 23 ha
- Number of Units: 95 000 units
- Type: First Solar units
- Installed capacity: 7MWc
Mission of Diades
Our mission consisted of performing a technical and detailed inspection of a part of the photovoltaic field.
Thus, we have established a general condition in terms of:
- Taking pictures with the high definition camera, for any damage present on the area to be inspected ,
- Thermal imaging camera controls (infrared technology) and reconciliation of the physical observations with the thermal rendering.
