Abstract
According to an appropriate approach which takes into account the received and the transmitted irradiance across a solar front-glass, the performance ratio has been calculated. The experimental measurements were carried out over two years of exposure in our solar platform located in Rabat-Morocco. The soiling rate has been concluded via the performance ratio and the result obtained have shown that the soiling rate has marked 7 % during the period of exposure. Using only solar front-glass is simple but quite efficient since it has the utility of restricting losses that can arise in photovoltaic panels.
