HOW TO GUARANTEE MAXIMUM
ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE
FROM YOUR SOLAR SYSTEM?
Invisible degradation can reduce your system’s performance by up to 70%.
With APID, you recover 100% of lost power and protect your investment.
“PID-FREE” MODULES CAN LOSE UP TO 5% OF THEIR POWER, WHICH TRANSLATES INTO THOUSANDS OF EUROS IN LOST REVENUE.

POWER DEGRADATION
The Hidden Issue in Photovoltaics
Solar panel manufacturers acknowledge that all types of modules undergo power degradation, more or less severe depending on the chemical compounds used to “dope” the silicon in the cells.
⚠️ WARNING: Standard PERC modules, still widely used today, are particularly vulnerable due to boron-oxygen complexes — a known cause of P.I.D.
Cell polarization leads to short circuits and gradual shutdown of modules, with degradation reaching up to 70%.

*Example of economic damage caused by Potential Induced Degradation. 1MW photovoltaic system installed at one of our Italian customers, where the degradation from P.I.D. – which began in 2012 – reached 6.69% in two years, with economic damage of €66,000. If the APID had not been installed in 2014, by 2020 the percentage of power loss would have reached -15%.
P.I.D. is the only reversible form of degradation
Unlike other types of deterioration, PID can be fully reversed — if stopped in time. This means complete recovery of lost performance and full system restoration.
The Solution: APID Technology
A universal voltage generator ≤1000V designed for both recovery and prevention of P.I.D.
Economic Impact
Even a 4–5% performance loss can disrupt your solar project’s business plan.
Immediate Benefits
Recovers up to 100% of lost power and protects new systems from day one
