ServicesSite ManagementRFI has over 30 years’ experience in designing solar PV systems. We offer a ‘no charge, no obligation’ site assessment that will demonstrate clearly whether your site will be suitable for a renewable energy system. We will come to your site, make a physical assessment of the building or ground space, as well as other factors such as shading from surrounding buildings or trees. A preliminary wind speed assessment can also be made. We will also check existing electrical systems to assess the most suitable connection points for your system.
System DesignRFI’s team of qualified engineers, all CEC accredited, will evaluate the site assessment data, and working with your building designs or site conditions, design your renewable energy system. This design will include engineering drawings of the system overlaid on to your site, electrical single line diagrams, power generation estimates and, if required, engineering certification of roof loading.
Capital Expenditure QuotationsBased on the developed System Design, RFI can produce detailed capital expenditure figures. The Capex will be all inclusive and fixed for the scope of work described. The Capex will also include estimates of the production of Small Technology Certificates (up to 100kW) or Renewable Energy Certificates generated by the proposed system.
Project Management and InstallationOften overlooked, professional project management processes are critical to the timely and effective delivery of your solar power project. RFI is a professional project management company with qualified engineers dedicated to your renewable energy project. They will manage all aspects of your project, with particular emphasis on the safety and environmental management issues.
Service and MaintenanceSolar PV systems in general require minimal maintenance, however regular cleaning and checks of the electrical connections are recommended for optimal performance. Systems which include wind turbines will require maintenance regimes as specified by the manufacturers. Remote system monitoring can be undertaken by RFI’s engineering team.
