In the push towards a sustainable future, photovoltaic (PV) panels are leading the charge in transforming buildings into energy-efficient powerhouses.

However, with the rapid adoption of this green technology comes a pressing concern shared by the insurance industry: the increased risk of fire associated with PV installations.
