Abstract |
|
Solar modules are the integration of photovoltaic cells. PV cells convert the solar energy from the sun to electric energy. These solar modules or solar panels are a non-conventional alternative source of energy. As these modules/panels are exposed to the sunlight in atmosphere, there is a constant accumulation of dirt on their surfaces. This causes a loss in the EER (energy efficiency ratio) of the modules/panels. Therefore, it is a need to keep the modules/panels clean. But it is not possible to clean these modules/panels manually when in large numbers or on a commercial scale. So, DustO is a remote controlled robot that reduces these human efforts for cleaning solar modules/panels. |
