2. Abstract about project
⚫Accumulation of dust from the outdoor environment
on the panels of solar photovoltaic (PV) system is
natural.
⚫There were studies that showed that the accumulated
dust can reduce the performance of solar panels, but
the results were not clearly quantified. The objective
of this research was to study the effects of dust
accumulation on the performance of solar PV panels.

3. Continue...
⚫Experiments were conducted using dust particles on
solar panels with a constant-power light source, to
determine the resulting electrical power generated
and efficiency.
⚫It was found from the study that the accumulated
dust on the surface of photovoltaic solar panel can
reduce the system's efficiency by up to 50%.

4. Continue...
⚫So it is very important to remove dust from the solar
cells. With the help of wiper on the bases of object
able sensor we can remove dust from solar panels
and increase the efficiency of solar cells.

⚫Show in figure 1 divide in to two parts of the solar
panel.
 first part before the cleaning of solar panel.
and 2nd part is after dust cleaning of the solar
panel.

⚫Solar Cell: Semiconductor device that converts
sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity.
⚫Module: PV modules consist of PV cell circuits sealed
in an environmentally protective laminate and are
the fundamental building block of PV systems.
⚫Solar Panel: Includes one or more PV modules
assembled as a pre-wired, field-installable unit.

10. Continue....
⚫Array: A PV array is the complete power-generating
unit, consisting of any number of PV modules and
panels

11. How to work in our project
⚫In this project we used automatic object able sensor
wiper for cleaning of solar plate. In this system when
dust or other particles placed on solar plate the
sensors starts to work. Sensor senses the particles
and sends feedback to the wiper and wipers are start
and completely clean the plate. We also used this
system manually.

12. Conceptual project model

13. APPLICATION:
⚫Solar Park.
⚫Solar water plants.
⚫Solar house.

14. ADVANTAGES:
⚫Increase efficiency of solar plate.
⚫Sometimes dust or other particles long time placed
on solar cells so it damages the aluminum strip of
solar plate. So we avoid this damage by this system.
⚫By this system we make the life of this plate longer
then other plates.

15. DISADVANTAGES:
⚫Cost of this system is more than other system.
