Dust covering solar panels blocks some of the sunlight that would otherwise reach the photovoltaic cells, reducing their efficiency. 8 When there is dust on the surface of solar panels, the photovoltaic cells have a harder time efficiently turning sunlight into power. A dust coating reduces the panels'' overall efficiency by acting as an insulator and preventing them

The findings showed that for dust grains not exceeding 5 g/m 2, the system enabled to eliminate more than 90 % of dirt from dust accumulated on the surfaces of solar panels. The significant importance of this technique is distinguished by its ability to repel more than 90 % of adhering dirt on the surface of solar panels (Kawamoto and Guo, 2018).
