Customer ServiceWhen looking for a house to live in, recently, I noticed that those with solar panels made me VERY ill, within seconds. As I own a rf (radio-frequency radiation) meter (a Cornet 88T Plus), I began measuring these sorts of homes.What I found was a significant increase in rf radiation (from hundreds to thousands of times higher) inside solar homes, with no other possible sources.

Customer ServiceThese risks include the grid frequency going out of the ±0.5 Hz limit, feeder circuits disconnecting and shorts to ground. The first two risks are expected to increase as the penetration of solar PV generation increases, because the solar systems may introduce transients or voltages that are out of phase with the grid.
The potential environmental impacts associated with solar power—land use and habitat loss, water use, and the use of hazardous materials in manufacturing—can vary greatly depending on the technology, which includes two broad categories: photovoltaic (PV) solar cells or concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP).
In other words, risk is a unit less measure. Table 2 summarizes the operating performance risks for solar PV systems and TEP’s distribution grid. These risks are related to the functionality of the system. Failure events in the performance category typically result in system downtime and will affect the quality and reliability of system operations.
The risks associated with the use of renewables are often overlooked and this poses serious problems for insurers. However, we are keen to support our customers and to provide guidance on how photovoltaic solar panel systems can be installed and used safely.
Deploying solar PV systems has another interesting possible unintended consequence. Solar panels do two things: they absorb solar energy and transform it into electricity, and they also reflect solar energy back into the atmosphere. Both of these actions reduce the solar energy that hits the ground and is absorbed by the Earth.
The previous literature review reveals a well-established environmental impacts assessment of the solar PV systems is crucial. Currently, there is a gap in the literature regarding the impact of different PV system components on the environment.
