PV Cleaning Recommendation Example

Example output from the PV Energy Recovery Platform showing how image inspection, historical performance data and cleaning history can be converted into an actionable energy recovery recommendation.

Performance Loss

11%

Last Cleaning

42 days ago

Soiling Risk

High

Evidence Inputs Used

This example recommendation is generated by combining two separate PV Energy Recovery modules.

1. Image Inspection Module

Uses AI-based visual inspection to identify panel-level soiling indicators, surface degradation risk and cleaning-priority areas from uploaded PV images.

2. Operational Analytics Module

Uses historical PV generation, cleaning history and performance trends to detect an estimated 11% performance loss and 42 days since last cleaning.

AI Assessment

The platform detects a sustained performance drop compared to the expected generation baseline and correlates it with cleaning history and high soiling risk.

Cleaning Priority

HIGH

Recommended Action

Schedule cleaning for the affected PV arrays within the next operational window.

  • Clean high-loss string groups first
  • Prioritize areas with visible soiling indicators
  • Re-check generation performance within 48 hours

Estimated Energy Recovery
