Every Detail Solar cleans utility-scale solar farms - multi-megawatt ground-mount and tracker arrays - at roughly 150 panels per hour per crew line, combining robotic and manual cleaning by row geometry and verifying the result against your string-level monitoring. This page is for O&M managers and asset owners who need soiling recovery they can put in front of finance, not a vague "we clean panels" pitch.
Who this is for
Solar farm O&M teams, IPPs, and asset managers running arrays where a few points of soiling loss is real six-figure revenue. If a 2 to 3 percent soiling loss on your portfolio translates to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year - as it does on large arrays - a documented wash program is an operating decision, not a cosmetic one.
What happens on site
| Stage | What we do |
|---|---|
| Survey | Drone + ground assessment of soiling, row spacing, access, water sources. |
| Program design | Crew lines and robotic/manual mix matched to row geometry and acreage. |
| Wash | ~150 panels/hr per line, deionized water, row-by-row to preserve generation. |
| Verify | String-level pre/post output, normalized, documented recovery report. |
Why operators choose us for utility-scale
- Predictable throughput means a schedulable, budgetable multi-day program.
- Robotic + manual mix so uniform rows go fast and edges/hot spots still get done right.
- Recovery you can prove against your own monitoring, feeding the Soiling & Recovery Report.
- Vegetation control available so the result holds between washes (see ground-mount).
When utility-scale cleaning is not worth it
If your farm sits in a high-rainfall, low-soiling region and your monitoring shows a soiling ratio near 0.99, a full-array wash may not clear its cost. We will tell you that, and recommend event-driven washing (after a dust storm or ash-fall) instead of a fixed calendar. Honest scoping is how we earn the recurring contract on the sites that need it.
