Common consequences of not having a good lightning protection system in place

Lightning and surge protection are essential in any type of building, whether it is an individual dwelling, a residential building or a critical structure such as a data centre. Lightning strikes are natural phenomena that can release large amounts of energy in a fraction of a second, while both atmospheric discharges and fluctuations in the power grid can cause surges. The consequences of not having a protection system in place or an inadequate one represent a significant risk to people, electronic equipment and the integrity of structures.

Photovoltaic plants: security against lightning storms in the solar energy sector

Investment in renewable energies has experienced an exponential increase over the last decade, spurred on by ecological awareness of climate change. Among the different clean energy sources, photovoltaic is the one that is growing the most year after year. In order to protect the strong investment that a solar park requires, Aplicaciones Tecnológicas S.A. has a portfolio of smart solutions for the protection against electrical storms, the effects of which pose a serious risk to the operation of solar plants.
