Desenvolvimento de um planejamento de manutenção de usinas solares fotovoltaicas: um estudo de caso aplicado no IFPE Pesqueira

Abstract

Due to the increasing number of photovoltaic systems installed in Brazil, there has been a growing need for regular inspections and maintenance to ensure that the equipment operates according to the designed conditions, minimizing risks to health, safety, and the environment. However, due to the lack of specialized training, a knowledge gap is observed in most companies regarding the efficient execution of such procedures. As a contribution to this topic, this article presents a maintenance plan that includes a set of best practice guidelines, with specific strategic questions for each relevant aspect of the photovoltaic system under analysis. The goal is to create a detective, preventive, and corrective maintenance plan that can be applied to photovoltaic systems, using recognized quality tools such as the Ishikawa diagram and

the Action Plan based on the 5W2H method. The model was then tested at a ground- mounted distributed minigeneration plant with a fixed structure to define the necessary actions for equipment maintenance. The results highlight the importance of preventive and corrective maintenance, combined with continuous system monitoring, to ensure greater durability and energy efficiency of photovoltaic plants.
