    Is there a location function if a photovoltaic panel is stolen

    Once activated, the device sends a signal to our central monitoring system, allowing us to track the location of your panels on our national network of beacons. If your panels are ever stolen, our team can quickly locate them and work with law enforcement to recover them. Department of Energy reports that approximately $1 billion worth of copper is stolen annually from various locations, including solar farms. Our device has been specifically designed to track monitor and recover solar panels, providing a comprehensive tracking solution that is tailored to the unique challenges faced. In the UK, where we have a data sharing agreement with all 43 police forces, we can confidently say that between January and August 2024 there were at least 70 reported offences against solar farms, and in more than 20% of those incidents, more than 20km of cable was stolen. These numbers do not capture the full scale. Three things. Drones can scan solar projects from the skies during both day and night to assess threats and deliver deterrents.
