Here's some Solar Soiling 101 for you today! What factors contribute to panel soiling? 🏭🌤️

Wondering how our utility scale brushes work? Read on!!
Two technicians start out by gently placing the MiniMax or TriMax on the solar panel's frame. The wheels (exhibited in this underside view of a panel array) allow the technicians to push the brush along the panels surface using two extendable handles, removing any dust, dirt, or debris with minimal effort. Once at the end of the row, the brush can be easily removed the same way it was put on, and the process begins again on the next row.
SunSweep uses lightweight aluminum and specialized brushes to remove particles without damaging the panel's optical surface. The unique rubberized track design and wheels allow for smooth operation, and the spring loaded brushes ensure contact between the brush and panel at all times.
