When sunlight hits solar photovoltaic panels, they convert the sun’s energy into clean solar electricity for homes, businesses, and communities. More sunshine means more electricity, which is why solar power is often associated with sunny climates. However, this is only part of the equation. The goal is to optimize the amount of sunshine reaching the solar panels, which also requires keeping the panels free of dust, leaves, snow, and other debris. Your solar panels may require regular cleaning so they produce as much clean energy as possible.
