ABSTRACT:
Solar energy has emerged as one of the most go-to sources of power in this century. Installations have been setup all across many countries in and around the globe. However, there exists various problems such as cleaning the PV panels which hinder the energy conversion. This study is an attempt to throw light on the various methods that exist to lower or eliminate dust accumulation on solar panels in harsh conditions. This might also serve its role as a comparative analysis on the electro static cleaning and super-hydrophobic anti-soiling coating methods that are used to eliminate the same problem.
