These plants, which require serious investments, are expected to operate efficiently for an average of 25 years. However, solar power plants are an area that involves multiple risks and therefore requires serious risk management. Recent research conducted by insurance companies shows that the greatest danger for solar power plants is overvoltage surges.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">You May Be Interested In: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/yilkomer.com\/en\/do-not-put-your-solar-power-plants-at-risk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Do Not Put Your Solar Power Plant at Risk<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>31% Overvoltage Surges<\/li>\n<li>25% Technical installation errors<\/li>\n<li>22% Negligence<\/li>\n<li>7% Theft<\/li>\n<li>5% Flooding<\/li>\n<li>2% Wind<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4986\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4986\" style=\"width: 629px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yilkomer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/g%C3%BCne%C5%9F-santrali-zarar-01.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4986\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4986\" src=\"https:\/\/yilkomer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/g%C3%BCne%C5%9F-santrali-zarar-01.jpg\" alt=\"Solar power plants are damaged mostly due to overvoltage surges at a rate of 31%.\" width=\"629\" height=\"629\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4986\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Solar power plants are most frequently damaged by overvoltage surges at a rate of 31%.

So, at what cost can we protect our plant against lightning and overvoltage surges? As shown in the infographic below, a 1 MW power plant can be fully protected against lightning and overvoltage surges at a cost of less than 1% of its total investment cost. The key point here is that the lightning and overvoltage protection system is implemented in accordance with IEC 62305 standards.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4988\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4988\" style=\"width: 642px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yilkomer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/y%C4%B1ld%C4%B1r%C4%B1mdan-korunma-maliyeti-01.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4988\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4988\" src=\"https:\/\/yilkomer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/y%C4%B1ld%C4%B1r%C4%B1mdan-korunma-maliyeti-01.jpg\" alt=\"In a 1 MW solar power plant, lightning protection systems constitute only 1% of the total cost.\" width=\"642\" height=\"642\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4988\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In a 1 MW solar power plant, lightning protection systems constitute only 1% of the total cost.
