Economical Automatic Solar Panel Cleaning System using arduino

摘要

Solar energy is the biggest renewable energy option nowadays and thus people are moving forward towards it but when there are different kind of debris are there on the solar panel the efficiency will not be get as it is designed for and there will be around 40% power loss due to it so there is a need to develop a system which will improve the efficiency of the solar panel so the Automatic Solar Panel Cleaning System is a system which uses the sensors such as water drop sensor, temperature and humidity sensor, light sensor, all the sensors are used to measure the impact of the different environmental effect on the solar panel for electricity generation. Guide-ways are use to glide the cleaning wiper all over the solar panel surface. Cleaning wiper is used to clean the surface of the solar panel. Arduino Microcontroller is use to operate the whole system automatically. Motors are used to operate the guide-ways in different direction like left-right and up-down..
