Why Solar Panel Cleaning Matters

Solar panels are designed to work hard for decades but dirt, dust, moss, bird droppings, and lichen can dramatically reduce their output. Even a thin layer of grime can cut energy generation by 5% to 25%, depending on location and surface build-up.

Panels don’t need to look dirty to be underperforming. Most dirt is airborne (inserted edit) -*-location landing test page-*- and invisible from the ground.

By cleaning them properly, you:

• Increase system performance and energy savings
• Maximise return from Feed-in Tariff (FiT) or Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) payments
• Extend the life of your system by reducing heat hotspots and panel stress
