Fault Detection and Power Loss Assessment for Rooftop Photovoltaics Installed in a University Campus, by Use of UAV-Based Infrared Thermography

In contrast to commercial photovoltaic (PV) power plants, PV systems at universities are not actively monitored for PV module failures, which can result in a loss of power generation. In this study, we used thermal imaging with drones to detect rooftop PV module failures at a university campus befor...
