Problems of Using Solar Photovoltaic Panels and Ways to Increase their Efficiency

摘要

Developing various capacities and methods of installation of solar power plants is a promising sector of global electricity production today. The article studies the problem of reduced generation of electricity by solar power plants due to the pollution of solar panels with dust particles, atmospheric precipitation of industrial waste and biological pollution against the background of climatic operating conditions. The paper presents a calculation of catching dust particles efficiency depending on the air flow speed. The research results, presented in this article, should be taken into account in the solar power plants construction and operation, which will significantly increase power generation and reduce operating costs.
