Solar PV is surging in the Middle East, due to its sustainability and decentralized nature. But with the ample sunlight of the region comes fine dust, which can sharply reduce power output. Zulfa Rasheed from the Rochester Institute of Technology in Dubai looked at the latest research in the field and found that module-glass coating…

The performance of solar photovoltaic panels is highly affected by the intensity of solar radiation, as well as other climatic conditions such as ambient temperature, dust, and humidity. Dust, in particular, is one of the solar PV panel’s enemies and has a major negative influence on performance. In this article, we discuss the impact of…
