Why is agricultural solar panel installation cleaning so important?

In the agricultural sector, the environment is usually dusty and full of natural materials such as hay, fertilisers and other particles that can deposit on solar panels. This contamination can significantly reduce the light transmission of the panels, leading to reduced energy yield. Even a seemingly small layer of dust or manure can quickly mean 5 to 10% efficiency loss, and that can add up if you don't clean the panels regularly.

Moreover, with agricultural solar panel installation cleaning, you prevent the formation of 'hotspots' small spots where dirt or damage causes excessive heat build-up. This can eventually cause permanent damage to the panels. So regular and expert cleaning not only helps increase your financial returns, but also extends the life of your installation.

How often should agricultural solar panel installations be cleaned?

The level of pollution in agricultural environments is often higher than in urban or residential areas. For example, there are periods when there is a lot of dust and pollen in the air think of harvest season. In addition, fertilisers and other agricultural products can adhere more easily to the panels.

In general, it is wise to have an agricultural solar panel installation cleaned at least once a year. With heavy use, or if you notice a lot of dust and dirt remaining, a six-monthly cleaning may be desirable. Not sure which interval is right for you?

Advantages of professional cleaning

Higher efficiency: Several studies have shown that cleanings can provide yield improvements of a few percent to as much as 15%, depending on the degree of soiling.
Longer lifespan: By preventing dirt build-up and hot spots, your entire system will last longer.
Safety and warranty: Many manufacturers recommend professional cleaning to maintain the warranty. Climbing a roof yourself is also not without risk.
Time savings: With the right tools and experience, we can take care of a large installation in a short time, while you yourself spend your precious time on other things.
Sustainable approach: Osmosis water and robotic cleaning minimise the use of harmful chemicals, which is better for the environment as well as for the panels themselves.

Frequently asked questions about agricultural solar panel installation cleaning

No, rain sometimes takes away some loose dirt, but bird droppings, fertilisers and dust adhere too strongly. Regular professional cleaning is necessary for optimum efficiency.

It is not advisable to clean yourself without the right knowledge and materials. Our robotic cleaners and osmosis water ensure thorough results without risk of damage.

Yes, we like to coordinate the time of cleaning with your operations. That way, we limit inconvenience and you can continue harvesting undisturbed.

Loss of yield, risk of permanent damage from hot spots and a shorter lifespan of your panels are the main risks. As an agricultural entrepreneur, you obviously want to avoid that.

We always examine the situation in advance and determine which method-such as aerial platforms or robot cleaners-is most suitable. Our teams are flexible and adapt to your location.
