Programmed sessions will allow the robot to perform cleaning even at night-time. With incorporated AI and a combination of proprioceptive and exteroceptive type sensors for its perception and localisation, the robot can automatically adapt to the height and inclination of any solar installations, ensuring a predefined pressure on panels that will always remain constant, avoiding risks of damages. and as much as 50 in the Middle East, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
Dust accumulation on solar panels decreases PV energy production by 7 in the U.S. The cleaning and operational status of the robot can be remotely tracked by the I&M team of the plant through dedicated SolarCleano web and mobile apps. Solar panel cleaning may seem fairly minor, but it’s crucial to maintaining efficiency.

Remote-controlled robot For wet and dry solar panel cleaning Solution to ground-based utility-scale solar farms Cleaning capacity up to 8MW per day The SolarCleano B1 is by far the biggest, fastest, and smartest robot ever created by SolarCleano. It can tackle a wide range of installations with fix tilt or equipped with trackers of an inclination from 0° to 34° with ease. The most essential part of any mobile robot or AGV is its navigation system it enables to sense the location of AGV, navigate its way towarddesired destination, and then avoid obstacles it.
The robot is able to adapt, navigate and clean with a speed up to 40m/min. Dirty solar panels reduce global solar energy output as much as 5 per cent, but a start-up in Israel has tested drone delivery of a new autonomous robot to clean rooftop arrays. By far the largest robot ever created by SolarCleano, the B1 can be equipped with brushes of up to 6 metres in length, increasing the cleaning capacity by 3 times compared to current state-of-the-art solutions. Solar panel cleaning robots are specialized machines designed to clean solar panels used for electricity generation from the sun’s energy.
