Unlock Solar Savings: The Power of Clean Panels and JUMBOGUARD™ Nanocoating
Dirty solar panels can lose up to 30% efficiency. JUMBOGUARD™ nano coating boosts performance with self-cleaning tech
The Impact of Dirt on Solar Panel Efficiency:
Solar panels are a significant investment in sustainable energy, but their efficiency can dramatically decrease if they aren't properly maintained. The accumulation of dust, grime, and other environmental pollutants on the surface of solar panels is a common issue that can severely impact their performance. Here's how dirty panels reduce efficiency and how regular cleaning and nano coating can help maximise solar energy output.
Up to 25% Reduction in Efficiency: Studies have shown that solar panels can lose up to 30% of their efficiency due to dirt and debris accumulation. This means less energy is generated, and the return on your investment diminishes.
Global Energy Losses: On a global scale, it's estimated that the energy loss due to dirty solar panels amounts to millions of dollars annually. Proper maintenance can easily avoid this loss.
Inefficient Energy Absorption: Dirt acts as a barrier that blocks sunlight from reaching the photovoltaic cells in solar panels, leading to inefficient energy absorption and reduced power output.

The diagram shows the output power of different load cases for light radiation of 250 W/m². It is shown in the table that the output power of the solar panel was reduced by between 25% and 31% due to the effects of the presence of talcum, between 65% and 74% due to sand, between 65% and 74% due to dust, between 15% and 86% due to moss, and between 0.5% and 4.3% due to water droplets. Clearly, it is shown that when covered with water droplets from rain or mist would result in negligible effect on the output power of the solar PV. On the other hand, unlike water, other particles, mainly moss, which are opaque, prevent light radiation from penetrating solar cells.
The Benefits of Regular Cleaning
Restored Efficiency: Regular cleaning of solar panels can restore their efficiency to near-original levels. On average, panels cleaned regularly can see an efficiency increase of 15-20%.
Longer Lifespan: Keeping panels clean reduces the risk of long-term damage caused by the buildup of corrosive materials, extending the lifespan of your solar installation.
Increased Energy Output: Clean panels mean more sunlight absorption, increasing energy output and lower electricity bills.
