Renewable energy
Guided video for renewable energy maintenance
Renewable assets are distributed, often remote, and expensive to visit. Seeing the fault before travelling changes the economics of every call-out.
No app. No customer account. No live video call.

How can renewable energy service teams diagnose faults remotely?
A site operator or asset owner records the fault through a guided link: the equipment, its status lights, the inverter or controller display, and the identification label. The technical team assesses the case remotely, decides whether a site visit is needed, and sends the right technician with the right components.
Added value
What Service Video Experts does for renewable energy maintenance teams.
Service Video Experts gives renewable-energy operators a structured visual case from site before a technician travels — inverter displays, fault codes, mounting condition and access — so remote teams decide what the visit actually requires.
01
Remote sites assessed first
Travel to distant or access-restricted sites is committed only when the case justifies it.
02
Yield loss addressed sooner
Faults are understood on the day they are reported instead of on the day of the visit.
03
Asset history retained
Each intervention leaves dated visual evidence against the asset.
The typical situation
A technician drives several hours to a remote site to find a fault that could have been identified — or resolved — from a short guided recording.
Who records the video
The site operator, the asset manager, or the service technician on site.
What is captured
- Equipment and status indicators
- Inverter or controller display
- Fault code and monitoring screen

Specialist review before climb — lifting plan and spare coupling prepared
How the service team uses it
- Assess the fault before travelling
- Decide between remote reset and site visit
- Plan access, lifting and safety requirements
- Prepare the correct replacement components
- Record the asset condition over time
Operational outcomes
- Less travel to distributed sites
- Faster return to generation
- Better asset records
- Verified completion without a second visit
Outcomes depend on your own service operation. We do not publish savings percentages that have not been measured with you.
Two directions of video
Before dispatch, and from the field.
The same structured approach is used in both directions, with different capture steps.
01 Customer or site → Service team
- Service request received
- Guided video link sent
- Customer or site contact records
- Service team reviews
- Resolve remotely or dispatch correctly
02 Field technician → Head office
- Technician opens the job
- Guided capture on site
- Checklist and readings
- Before and after evidence
- Completion record reviewed centrally
Common questions
What service teams usually ask first.
- Does the customer or site contact need to install anything?
- No. They open a link on their own phone and are guided through the capture steps in the browser. There is no app to download, no account to create and no live video call to join.
- What happens if the recording misses something?
- The service team can request a specific follow-up — a particular angle, the serial plate or an additional answer — through the same case, without starting again.
- How long does it take to get started?
- Implementation starts with one workflow. We configure the capture steps, questions and checklist for that workflow, connect it to how your team already works, and extend from there once it is running.
- Is this software or a service?
- It is software, licensed by subscription, with implementation included. Your team uses the platform; the people who record — customers, site contacts, technicians — need nothing installed.
