‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) member Candian Solar has launched a new business unit dedicated to solar Operations and Maintenance (O&M) services for utility-scale power plants.

"Our O&M business was born out of necessity to operate and maintain our own utility scale solar power plants in Ontario, Canada," said Dr. Shawn Qu, chairman and chief executive officer of Canadian Solar. "Since all the solar plants were our own, we built the O&M team to provide the best quality of service and operations in order to maximize the value of our own solar assets. Now we are making these best practices and processes, fully ingrained in our O&M team's DNA, available to third-party asset owners."

According to the SMSL it has over 700MW of PV power plants around the world currently under operation and 1.2GW contracted worldwide. The SMSL also claims to provide PV plant availability of 99% and above.
