The use of photovoltaic solar power for communication and signalling systems continues to grow although not without some growing pains. There have been successes but also failures. This paper examines those considerations most important in helping users avoid some of the common pitfalls in the sizing, selection, and installation of photovoltaic (PV) power systems. This paper has focused on the complex interaction of the many variables and factors affecting optimum PV system design. We have not discussed the actual 'engineering' of the system in the way of mounting structure, hardware, controls, etc. We recommend equal attention to these areas to also ensure long-term durability and reliability. With a little effort, a properly designed and engineered photovoltaic power system will provide you with the most reliable remote site power of any of today's available technologies.
