Regular solar panel cleaning is especially important on agricultural farms, particularly those with livestock. Animal operations can release ammonia and other airborne contaminants that can settle on the surface of solar panels and create a buildup that reduces the amount of sunlight reaching the panels.

​

If this buildup is not removed regularly, panel performance and energy production can be significantly affected. In severe cases, production losses can exceed 50%.

​

For agricultural facilities with livestock, annual solar panel cleaning is strongly recommended to help maintain panel efficiency, maximize energy production, and protect the long-term performance of the solar investment.
