As the global solar sector grows, in both scale of deployments and volume of capital, there is an increasingly unwieldy volume of information in the industry. Data concerning optimal solar irradiance hours, plant performance and equipment maintenance and repair are all becoming increasingly commonplace in the solar sector, but this abundance of information could bring as many challenges as opportunities for a sector undergoing rapid change.

A number of companies have sought to tackle these challenges, including Lithuania-headquartered PVcase, a software-as-a-service company that has launched a number of programmes to enable solar project design and optimisation. Last year, the company raised US$100 million in funding to address what it calls the “data risk” present in the solar sector, as companies not familiar with data analysis and management are suddenly required to process and interpret data on an ever-growing scale.
