Many factors affect the performance of photovoltaic (PV) panels such as dust accumulation and overheating. Dust accumulation on PV panels can obscure the solar radiation and reduce the efficiency of the panels dramatically. Heating of PV panels due to excessive solar radiation and high ambient temperature reduces the efficiency of the panels significantly. The main objective of this study is to solve the problems of dust accumulation and overheating using the minimum amount of water and energy. These two issues are tackled by developing a system that can clean the PV panels from deposited...
