Maintenance of solar cells

How important is the maintenance of solar cells?

Answer from the Tenka Power expert꞉

Solar cell maintenance is crucial to ensure the maximum efficiency and longevity of your solar installation. Although solar cells are generally very low maintenance, regular inspections and cleaning can significantly improve performance. Dirt, dust, leaves or bird droppings can affect energy production , which can lead to reduced performance.

Regular cleaning of the solar cells is particularly important in regions with high levels of dust or air pollution. Clean solar modules capture more sunlight and therefore produce more electricity. It is advisable to check and clean the modules at least once a year, especially after heavy storms or long dry periods during which dirt can accumulate.

In addition to cleaning, inspection of the electrical components plays an important role. The inverter, cabling and fastening elements should be checked regularly for damage. A well-maintained system not only ensures higher electricity production, but also extends the service life of your solar installation. Problems such as faulty cabling or damaged modules can be detected and rectified at an early stage before they cause major damage.

The investment in regular maintenance is small compared to the potential losses caused by inefficient solar cells. With careful maintenance, your system will remain productive and efficient for many years. A well-maintained solar system therefore not only offers you financial benefits, but also makes a major contribution to the energy transition.
