This project addresses this issue by presenting the design and implementation of an automated solar panel cleaning mechanism. The system utilizes a microcontroller-based control unit to manage the movement of a cleaning apparatus, equipped with brushes and a water delivery system, across the panel surface. Sensors are incorporated to detect the panel's edges, preventing the cleaning mechanism from exceeding its boundaries. The system aims to optimize solar energy harvesting by ensuring panels are consistently free of obstructions, thereby maximizing their power output. This automated solution offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative to}, keywords = {Solar Panel Cleaning Automated Cleaning, Photovoltaic (PV) Efficiency, Dust Accumulation Energy Harvesting.}, month = {July}, }
