This has had adverse implications on the construction and completion of several Solar PV projects. COVID-19 has allowed for the general decline in production capacity, supply chain, shipments, disruptions to the grid connection, etc. There aren\u2019t any blueprints for dealing with a pandemic. So, work has stopped in some locations, while construction has continued in others under strict guidelines.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_91323\"  width=\"1020\" height=\"574\"  data-origwidth=\"1020\" data-origheight=\"574\"  data-relstop=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/II4dXPOdeSw?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOperational Safety and worker health are the priority, but that\u2019s always been there.
