Here's the inside scoop on the ingenious product that safely handles electrical risks from solar panels during a fire...

Hello Smart Firefighting Community!

Welcome to another episode of covering real world innovations via interviews with fire service and technology industry experts that empower YOU to develop your very own Smart Firefighting strategy!

This is the third episode of our Interschutz 2022 Mini Series. Interschutz 2022 was an international trade show hosted over six days and included exhibitions plus engaging forums covering the various aspects of firefighting, rescue services, civil protection and safety and security.

In this episode:

- How can we manage the constant changes for batteries and solar panels in our daily lives?

- How can an existing extinguisher delivery system increase solar panels safety?

- What are the unintended risks associated with these technologies?

Jim Foran is co-founder and CEO of PVStop International Pty Ltd, a company that is pioneering renewable energy and new technology safety. His responsibilities cover setting the tone of the organization and the team, establishing goals, innovating, motivating and building trust with all stakeholders to ensure the company achieves its corporate objectives.

PVSTOP is the only global solution that safely isolates the power produced by solar panels. PVSTOP eliminates the risk of high voltage DC electrocution by acting as a “liquid tarpaulin” shutting down the solar PV system in seconds. This problem poses a significant safety risk recognized by fire and emergency services agencies around the world. In professional terms, this risk is known as the “DC Danger Zone” and, up until now, there has been no practical solution to this globally recognized problem.

PVSTOP was the inaugural winner of the Fire Protection Industry Awards for Innovative Product and Technology in Australia and a finalist in both the UK Fire & Emergency Awards and the SafeWork NSW Awards.

Beyond PVSTOP, Jim has over 20 years’ experience in senior sales, marketing and operational roles with some of the world’s largest brands, lectured on renewable energy safety in 16 countries and holds qualifications in both business and fire engineering. Jim is passionate about renewable energy and improving firefighter safety.
