Soiling Losses and Its effect on Solar and PV Modules: Before, We move ahead with the topic, It is important to know that what are soiling losses. The term Soiling is used to describe the accumulation of dirt, leaves, dust and bird dropping on Solar and PV Panels. The efficiency of the PV solar panels is largely dependent on the ambient conditions and several factors come into the picture to determine the actual efficiency of panels during their operation. One such factor is soiling. However, in a practical sense, the definition of soiling could be much wider than that. For instance, many researchers concluded from their research that bird droppings can significantly bring down panel efficiency and hence, they are also considered while calculating the soiling losses. How Soiling affects panel and Its Performance: Degradation of Panel Output: Dust and Soil will cover the PV cells once it is accumulated. It will bring down voltage and current output of the panel.
