Technical and Technological Solutions Towards a Sustainable Society and Circular Economy

Part of the book series: World Sustainability Series ((WSUSE))

Abstract

Solar photovoltaic energy is the most widely used renewable energy. It consists of the direct conversion of electromagnetic radiation (solar or otherwise) into electricity. The efficiency of these solar collectors is strongly influenced by external parameters such as dust and bird droppings, as well as by climatic conditions such as temperature, wind speed, rain, ice and snow. In this chapter, the influence of dust on the performance of photovoltaic panels has been studied and an intelligent system based on the Internet of Things has been developed. The role of this system is to detect the dust deposited on the panel and to give instructions to the cleaning system to operate. the experimental study showed that thanks to the smart cleaning system we were able to gain 3.2% of production.
