Abstract
The performance of a solar power plant can be affected by some environmental variables such as soiling, which can reduce the overall efficiency of the plant. The amount of solar energy absorbed by the solar panels is reduced because of dust deposition or soiling over the PV panels, which can reduce the plant performance. The objective of this work is to study the impact of soiling and periodic cleaning on a rooftop Solar PV plant (industrial) and analyze the financial benefits of increasing the cleaning frequency of the PV panels. The case study revealed that the system performance of the plant increases up to 12% after cleaning based on location and cleaning frequency 3 per month.
