This report describes data collection and analysis of solar photovoltaic (PV) equipment events, which consist of faults and failures that occur during the normal operation of a distributed PV system or PV power plant. We present summary statistics from locations where maintenance data is being collected at various intervals, as well as reliability statistics gathered from that data, consisting of fault/failure distributions and repair distributions for a wide range of PV equipment types.
