Raycatch is an AI diagnostics technology for solar energy, on a mission to revolutionize the PV market by enabling automated management of solar assets. By deciphering existing solar energy data, Raycatch transforms PV Operation and Maintenance (O&M) tasks from traditional manual scheduled operations to on-demand automatic management. The Raycatch app, DeepSolar™, analyzes production data on a daily basis and aims to generate a full diagnostic mapping of all components in a PV portfolio. All insights are ROI driven and fully quantified, include panels under warranty but below the spec, maintenance on demand (dust + grass), disconnected cables, PID, temperature coefficient, MPPT/Inverter efficiency, tracking systems and many more. The result is maximized performance and maintenance of solar assets, leading to increased yield, decreased operational costs and the acceleration of solar energy penetration in the global energy market. No hardware or software installation, No site visits are needed.
