End-of-Warranty Inspection Campaigns

Fixed deadlines decide your claims: the EPC workmanship warranty (typically year 2) and the module product warranty (year 10-12). Sinovoltaics inspects your assets before each expiry - while claims can still be filed - and delivers a claim-ready evidence package per finding.

What an end-of-warranty campaign covers

An end-of-warranty inspection is a deadline-triggered site campaign performed before an EPC workmanship or module product warranty expires, documenting every claimable defect - workmanship punch lists, EL/IR module sampling - as evidence while claims can still be filed.

Included:

• Workmanship punch list before EPC warranty expiry: mounting, cabling, connectors, wire management, civil works
• Module EL / IR sampling before product warranty expiry: microcracks, PID, diode failures, degradation beyond warranty curves
• Claim-ready evidence package per finding - defect, location, serial number, severity, warranty clause it triggers
• Fleet-wide warranty-expiry calendar - every asset’s deadlines mapped, campaigns scheduled ahead
• Pre-booked campaign slots across your portfolio, years in advance

Deliverables: campaign report per site, evidence package per claimable finding, claim recommendation with deadline register, hand-over into claim management where pursued.

Warranty value expires silently

No one sends you a reminder that your rights lapse next quarter. Assets change owners, asset managers rotate, and the year-2 EPC deadline passes during a busy construction season elsewhere in the portfolio. The defects were there - unfound, unclaimed, and after the deadline, permanently yours.

The economics are lopsided: a campaign costs a fraction of a single successful workmanship or module claim. Every year, owners forfeit claims worth multiples of the inspection that would have found them - not because the defects weren’t real, but because nobody looked before the date.

The calendar is the product

One inspection is a service. The warranty-expiry calendar is a system:

1. We map every asset in your fleet: COD dates, EPC warranty terms, module product and performance warranty milestones
2. Campaigns are scheduled 6-12 months before each expiry - and pre-booked across the portfolio
3. Each campaign feeds findings into claims while the clock still runs
4. The calendar rolls forward as you acquire assets

Fleet owners stop asking “should we inspect?” The calendar answers it per asset, per deadline, years ahead.

When you need this

• Assets approaching year 2 after COD (EPC workmanship deadline)
• Fleets with modules entering years 8-12 (product warranty window)
• Newly acquired portfolios with undocumented warranty positions
• Performance warranties with degradation thresholds worth verifying
• Insurers or investors asking how warranty rights are managed

Engagement model

Per-campaign fees under a fleet framework agreement; slots bookable years ahead. Strongest paired with the Annual Plant Health Program - annual trending flags claim candidates early, the campaign documents them before the deadline.
