Solar Panel Cleaning Market to Reach USD 1.8 Billion by 2030, Driven by Rising Solar Installations and Efficiency Demand
The global solar panel cleaning market, valued at USD 1,200 million in 2022, is projected to grow to USD 1,800 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 5.5% between 2023 and 2030. Increasing solar adoption, the need for higher efficiency, and innovation in automated cleaning systems are key factors driving this market's growth.π Market Overview
Solar panel cleaning is the process of removing dust, dirt, bird droppings, ash, and other debris from the surface of photovoltaic (PV) modules. These contaminants obstruct sunlight and reduce energy output. Regular cleaning enhances power generation, module efficiency, and system durability, making it a vital part of solar energy operations across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.
Studies reveal that panel cleaning can increase efficiency by up to 60% in commercial arrays and 21% in residential systems, underscoring its value proposition for end-users.
