How to Remove Snow from Photovoltaic Panels

Complete Dry Cleaning Method:
Suitable for areas with high dust, dry climates, and limited water resources. Use a mop or an extended glass brush to sweep away dust, sand, leaves, and other debris from the surface.
Disadvantages: Time-consuming, average cleaning effectiveness, and difficulty in removing oil stains, bird droppings, and similar residues.

Water Cleaning Measures:
Suitable for small distributed projects. Connect a hose to a faucet and directly rinse the surface of the modules. Use a glass brush to remove stubborn stains, or employ a high-pressure water gun for thorough cleaning until the surface is clean.

Laying Water Pipes:
This method is suitable for areas with abundant water resources and favorable geological conditions, particularly for commercial and industrial power stations. Design a rational layout based on the arrangement of the photovoltaic array and lay pipes within the site. Subsequent cleaning only requires opening the water pipes to wash the surrounding photovoltaic components.
Advantages: Convenient, fast, and effective cleaning.
Disadvantages: High water consumption, significant initial investment costs, and the need for anti-freeze treatment for pipes in winter.

Spray Cleaning:
Advantages: No manual labor required, fast cleaning speed, and suitable for areas where manual cleaning is inconvenient.
Disadvantages: Poor cleaning effectiveness, high water consumption, and high initial investment costs for spray equipment.

Pipe-Free Cleaning Solution:
Use mobile water storage devices for cleaning, typically employing mobile water trucks. This method is commonly used in large-scale ground power stations.
Advantages: Lower initial costs compared to laying pipes, flexibility, and good cleaning effectiveness.

Specialized Equipment Cleaning:
Advantages: Low water consumption, fast cleaning speed, and effective cleaning.
Disadvantages: Suitable only for sites with wide component spacing and flat terrain. Vehicle movement may exert uneven force on the components, potentially damaging them. Additionally, professional operators are required.
