For solar panels to run on high efficiency, it is of absolute necessary to keep those surfaces clean. Protective glass coatings on solar modules get covered with contaminants such as pollution, dust, grime, pollen and bird droppings, which obstruct sunlight, resulting in significant reduction of power production. In industrial spaces, these panels are even prone to cement & coal dust accumulation, affecting the output of the panel.

As per a research study, a 10 g layer of dust can cause reduction in solar panel's power by up to 25%, and a 50 g layer can reduce it by 55%. 

 

Hence, it is of utmost importance to keep those PV modules (Solar Panels) clean. Most of the units use high water jet spray to clean but it is not recommended. The high speed jet spray can cause internal damage to panel surfaces. As well as water cleaning leaves behind stains, spots and salt residues, which creates an insulating layer, ultimately affecting the absorption rate.
