Photovoltaic energy is an accessible technology. It has become a popular investment for companies as well as for residential users. The solar panel efficiency may be reduced by up to 5% to 10% from the build-up of dust particles alone. Adding in other factors such as falling leaves, bird dropping, and water streaking, the efficiency of these panels can be further reduced to as much as 10 – 30%. The efficiency of the PV panel depends on the amount of light that falls on it. Due to the azimuth angle of the solar panel, the deposition of dust on the PV panel reduces the efficiency of the energy generated. To increase the efficiency of the PV panel, it has to be cleaned periodically. The panel detects the presence of an obstruction shading a cell and the concerned person can operate a cleaning mechanism that cleans off the obstruction and, therefore, restores the panel to normal capacity.
