Inspection Considerations for Lamesa Solar

This 102 MW installation is well-suited to complete aerial thermal coverage, typically achievable in a concentrated inspection window that minimizes operational disruption. With 8 years of operation, this facility is entering the phase where degradation-related defects become increasingly common. Industry data shows hotspot frequency typically increases after year 4-5, making regular thermal inspections especially valuable for identifying warranty-qualifying defects before coverage periods expire.

Warranty & Asset Protection

At 8 years old, this facility may be approaching or past its product warranty expiration. Thermal inspections become especially valuable at this stage — identifying remaining warranty-eligible defects before coverage lapses, and establishing a prioritized maintenance plan for the post-warranty period.

Local Response — 93.3 mi from Base

Our Hale Center, TX base is 93.3 mi from Lamesa Solar. When IEC-compliant weather windows open (600+ W/m² irradiance, clear skies), we mobilize without the lead time or travel costs of out-of-region providers.
