Solar panel security

Solar farms are increasingly becoming targets of copper theft. In 2023, as much as 100 metres of copper cable was stolen in Brabant; the damage ran into tons. Materials worth thousands of euros were also stolen in Drenthe and Friesland. Perpetrators can go about their business undisturbed because solar parks are often in remote locations. This emphasises how important it is to secure solar panels properly. CBNN offers high-quality solar panel security throughout the Netherlands.

With 24/7 surveillance, thermal cameras and fast detection, we prevent damage caused by theft and vandalism. This is not only important for continuity, but also often a requirement of insurers.

Why is solar farm security important?

The number of thefts at solar parks and solar rooftops has risen sharply in recent years. Due to their remote location, these parks are an attractive target for criminals, who can often go about their business undisturbed. The most commonly stolen material is copper, due to its high market value. Unfortunately, this leads not only to direct damage, but also to considerable consequential damage.

When criminals strike, the damage is often not limited to the stolen materials such as copper cables or solar panels. The real cost comes from the downtime of the solar farm. Without the right cables or panels, no energy can be generated, meaning you lose revenue. The damage can amount to hundreds of thousands of euros as a result.

Stricter requirements from insurers

Besides direct and indirect damage, insurers are imposing increasingly stringent requirements on solar panel security. Without a solid security system, you could run into problems claiming damage, or even risk not being insured. This makes security not only a practical necessity, but also a requirement to stay financially protected.

Camera surveillance with heat detection

Solar security is all about combining advanced technology and smart systems. Our cameras are equipped with heat detection, which allows them to do much more than just monitor.

With the ability to detect temperature differences, our systems can detect heat development early. This helps to quickly identify incipient fires. This is important in remote solar parks where fires often cannot be detected in time, with all its consequences.

In addition, these cameras are able to spot suspicious activity even when it is completely dark. Whether it's intruders or unexpected situations, the cameras provide 24/7 surveillance and immediately send an alert to our control room in case of anomalies.
