Effect on a solar plant facing soiling & sticky dust

Located in a dusty area near farmland and open spaces, this three-year-old rooftop plant suffered from very heavy, sticky soiling. Even with a weekly water flush, panel output stayed low and maintenance was labour-intensive.

After applying the Solar Glass Shield coating, soiling reduced significantly, generation was enhanced drastically, the labour hours needed to clean the plant dropped, and the cleaning cycle was pushed out to 60 days.
