Thermal infrared inspection is a non-destructive testing method that utilizes infrared cameras to capture thermal images of PV arrays. In this case study, we explore how AI is transforming IR anomaly detection, compare AI-driven analysis with traditional manual methods. . An infrared camera helps to visualise defects on new and existing installations Over the last years a remarkable increase of photovoltaic installations for producing renewable energy with both residential and non-residential buildings could be registered. At the same time large solar power plants. . This powerful diagnostic tool can detect hotspots and other potential problems that could impair the performance of solar panels.
