Plant on Fire – How “flammable” are photovoltaic systems

Date:

The demand for photovoltaic panels on the roofs remains high and the specialist companies have been fully booked for months. After the fire in one of these systems on Sunday in Güssing (Burgenland), the question arises: how safe are the solar systems?

After the fire in a photovoltaic system on the roof of a factory building in Güssing, the National Investigation Department has not yet completed the investigation into the cause. So one can continue to speculate about the trigger: were the modules or cables faulty by the manufacturer? Was it an assembly error, for example that plug connections could come loose or loose cables that were moved and scraped by the wind? Was it harmful external influences such as vandalism or damage by animals?
