Solar Panel Cleaning
Solar Panel Cleaning
Improve Solar Panel Efficiency
One of the biggest benefits of solar panel cleaning is increased efficiency. Clean solar panels deliver a much higher energy output than dirty panels will.
Dirt, dust, and bird droppings can accumulate on the protective glass of the solar panels, which will gradually decrease the amount of sunlight that the solar cells receive every day.
Solar panels that dont receiving as much vital sunlight and are not able to perform at optimum capacity and can end up costing you more when your system then relies on the grid to make up for your panels’ inefficiency.
Regular cleans to remove debris, dust, salt air and dirt will improve their efficiency at producing electricity.
Failing to give your panels the maintenance they deserve may also mean losing energy. Remember that losing energy means losing money.
Does cleaning solar panels make a difference? Yes, indeed. Below are energy percentages you may lose per quarter if you fail to give your panels the required maintenance.
