How Your Business Can Benefit from a Photovoltaic System Cleaning
The sun is shining and the birds are singing—it’s finally spring! As you begin to clean out your space and get ready for the warmer months ahead, don’t forget about your photovoltaic (PV) system. Every commercial property deserves a deep cleaning every once in a while, and so does your PV system. In this blog post, we will discuss why it’s important to schedule your photovoltaic system cleaning regularly and how you can go about doing so with Synergy Electric.
Need PV Work Done on your Commercial Property?
Cleaning your photovoltaic system is important for several reasons. First, it will help ensure that your system is running at peak efficiency. Also, a thorough cleaning can prolong the life of your system and when looking at the long-term effects, cleaning your PV system will help you save money on your energy bill. With all of these benefits, there’s no reason not to give your photovoltaic system a good cleaning this spring!
The first thing you should do is to inspect your current PV system and see if it is in need of a cleaning. Obvious signs of a needed cleaning are if your unit is covered in dust, dirt, pollen, leaves, or other hinderances. If left untreated, this grime can accumulate and damage your PV system. Allow professionals like Synergy Electric to not only inspect your commercial property but identify specific places that imperatively need maintenance.
Cleaning a photovoltaic system has many benefits that often go underrated. For example, a study done in 2012 by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) found that “soiling losses” accounted for about 15% of all energy lost in PV systems. In other words, leaving your system dirty can lead to significant reductions in power output. Not only does this affect your bottom line, but it also contributes to a larger problem—the loss of renewable energy generation.
