Design of an aerial PV cleaner

This paper focuses on designing a drone capable of cleaning solar panels. As renewable energy, particularly solar power, becomes increasingly important, the challenge of dust accumulation on solar panels is growing. Dust can significantly reduce the efficiency of solar panels by blocking sunlight. This study evaluates the effectiveness of drone-based cleaning methods through secondary research and develops a proof-of-concept PV-cleaning drone. The project demonstrates the feasibility of using drones for this purpose and highlights areas for improvement.
