Please note: The WINAICO insurance protection is currently only offered for Europe and Australia.

The policy covers all components of a stationary installed photovoltaic power plant operated as a commercial venture (feeding into the public electricity grid). It includes power supply and draw meters, DC and AC cables, the mounting system, solar modules, inverters, and instrumentation and control components.

For more details please refer to the specific insurance policies.

1. All risk insurance

The policy covers all unforeseen loss due to damage or destruction of the insured assets.

Specifically, cover is provided against:

• Fire, lightning strike, explosion, heat damage due to smouldering, glimmering, scorching or glowing, or implosion
• Natural events such as storms, lightning, hail, snow load, frost
• Electrical short‐circuit, voltage surge, induction
• Water, damp, flooding
• Robbery, burglary, sabotage, vandalism
• Operator control error, accidental damage, negligence
• Material, design and execution faults
• Force majeure
• Animal bite (such as by martens or mice)

2. Insurance against interruption of service

Loss of income from grid supply fees will also be reimbursed if the technical operability of the photovoltaic plant is interrupted or impaired by damage or loss.

3. Insurance against reduced yield

If the annual yield of the insured photovoltaic plant falls short of its forecast (determined on the basis of a qualified yield assessment) by more than 10 %, the insurer will reimburse the shortfall.

Reasons for specific plants to suffer reduced yield include:

• Global irradiation less than the forecast (expert assessment)
• Defects in the plant (material faults)
• Unusual wear and tear or soiling of the plant or its components
• Internal malfunction of modules and electronic components (inverters)
• Grid disconnects by the power Utility
