The recent unprecedented advancements in solar panel deployment worldwide have also aroused much interest in various dry-cleaning methods to tackle soling-related problems. A more recent work of MIT, USA, is based on cleaning through Electrostatic Induction by coating the top of the panel with an AZO layer and moving an EHT (Extra High Tension) biased metal electrode over it. The present approach we suggested eliminates the need for the top of the solar panels to be electrically conducting and optically transparent, simultaneously making the entire process simple, economically feasible, and sustainable. Moreover, this work proposes an additional enhancement to this cleaning process. After applying an EHT supply for cleaning, a short burst of air can be introduced to improve the effectiveness of dust removal further, ensuring even more satisfactory results.
