4 Frequently Asked Questions about “Cleaning bird droppings on photovoltaic panels - BlackVolt Energy Storage”

How to remove bird droppings from solar panels?

The specially developed cleaning device guarantees the gentle and thorough removal of bird droppings on solar systems. The brush can be mounted on almost all tractors, telescopic loaders or excavators and is operated hydraulically. The variable swivel brush roller is conveniently controlled using a joystick.

Do bird droppings affect solar panels?

Bird droppings on solar installations are considered the most stubborn and aggressive form of soiling to affect photovoltaic modules. Under intense sunlight, the acidic droppings can burn into the glass and cause so-called hot spots. Photovoltaic modules enjoy zero protection against environmental and weather-related influences, 24 hours a day.

Do you need to free your solar system of bird droppings?

It is, therefore, necessary to regularly free your solar system of bird droppings, in order to maintain its value in the long-term and ensure an optimal yield. Bird droppings on solar installations are considered the most stubborn and aggressive form of soiling to affect photovoltaic modules.

What is the solution for soiled solar systems?

The solution for soiled solar systems: SunBrush® mobil. The specially developed cleaning device guarantees the gentle and thorough removal of bird droppings on solar systems. The brush can be mounted on almost all tractors, telescopic loaders or excavators and is operated hydraulically.
