Mapping photovoltaic soiling using spatial interpolation techniques [PDF]
, 2019 In this paper, we present a new soiling map developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, showing data from 83 sites in the United States. Soiling has been measured through soiling stations or extracted by photovoltaic system performance data ...

Maps of long-term soiling losses in Europe considering a partial cleaning effect by rain
EPJ PhotovoltaicsThe soiling of PV modules has been estimated to yield global losses in the solar energy production by 4 to 7%, even considering the cleaning efforts in many solar energy systems.

Evaluation of the behaviour of different solar mirrors against soiling phenomenon
, 2016 To assess their performance and behavior against soiling phenomenon, two different types of mirrors were tested in this study, namely glass and polymer mirrors used in Concentrated Solar Power plants, CSP. Samples were exposed in a natural desert site in

Quantifying and mitigating soiling and abrasion in solar power [PDF]
, 2022 Countries with some of the best solar resources suffer disproportionately from soiling and abrasion, which reduces system conversion efficiencies and decreases equipment lifetime. This Special Collection covers climatological analyses, soiling metrology,

Anti-soiling coating performance assessment on the reduction of soiling effect in second-surface solar mirror [PDF]
, 2019 Soiling represents a major problem for CSP plants, since the accumulation of particles onto the reflective surface cause absorption and scattering of solar irradiance, leading to a significant decrease in the mirrors’ reflectance.
