Step Into the Future....

The PV SoilSayer is a revolutionary new software that helps PV owners and operators estimate cleaning costs well ahead of PV system construction. The PV SoilSayer utilizes advanced computer learning algorithms combined with annual weather data, PV performance models, soiling losses estimations, and system cost trade-offs to calculate the optimal cleaning cycles.

Why PV Soil Monitoring?

0 %

Up to 35% energy losses due to soiling in a single month in desert regions

Soiling losses are specific to design, technology and local weather conditions​

Non-uniform soiling is a major contributor to hotspot formation and accelerated degradation​

0 %

Cleaning costs account for up to 30% of total system O&M budget
