Research & Engineering

How common are fires in solar panel systems and what causes them?
Research from Fraunhofer, BRE and Bridgehill shows that most PV fires start on the DC side due to arc faults or poor installation. Roof insulation and design play a critical role in fire spread. This article summarizes key findings and how to reduce risk through smart material choices and inspections.
