Robots Clean Solar Panels Without Water

Israeli innovator Ecoppia has developed a solar powered robot that cleans PV panels without water. The microfiber technology has been in use for a year now at Ketura Sun in the Arava desert and has increased the energy efficiency by around 5% every month. Conventional cleaning methods involve the use of water and man power, while the robots use no additional energy, no water and clean the panels every evening at dusk.
