It makes water droplets bounce off it, taking all dust particles with them, a property that gives huge promises to the solar panel industry. We all know that to maintain solar panels as efficient as they are designed to be, […]

Thanks to the new mechanical robot NOMADD from Saudi Arabia, however, cleaning of panels can now be automated and without a drop of water. In desert environments the sun is strong, but the regular sand storms and the […]

Cleaning a few solar panels, on your home, to increase efficiency might not seem like a big deal. After all, we’re talking perhaps a couple hundred square feet. You could do that in an afternoon. On the other hand, […]
