Dust soiling has been a well-known issue for grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems since it has become one of the leading methods for power generation among renewable resources and continues to grow faster [1, 2].The dust particles settled on the surface of PV modules block the transmission of sunlight; thus, the power output decreases as well as …
A less obvious issue is the heating of the solar panel after the accumulated dust warms due to being hit by solar radiation [42]. When measured within a lab setting, the efficiency rating of the solar panels decreased as the temperature of the panels increased. Readings taken of the power efficiency at maximum power at 30 °C was around 8.3%.
Finally, Pérez-Anaya et al. [13] proposed a methodology based on a machine learning approach to estimate different levels of dust accumulation in PV panels using various sensors such as voltage ...
Thus, the solar PV panels need to be cleaned.

Another technique to remove dust from solar panels is called electrostatic dust removal, which applies a high AC voltage to repel dust particles from soiled solar panels. This has a maximum cleaning efficiency of 100% when dust settled is roughly 1 g/m 2, which corresponds to dust accumulation over a period of three days in the Middle East and North Africa. [11]
