The seminar on technical specifications for cleaning and O&M of N-type TOPCon modules was held on October 14, 2024. It focused on intelligent cleaning strategies and requirements for low-damage cleaning equipment in bifacial power generation scenarios. How can cleaning effectiveness be balanced with module protection while optimizing cleaning plans and equipment selection? Learn about the key discussion points and areas of focus for future specifications, providing a reference for the scientific O&M of photovoltaic power plants. The relevant standards have not been issued or implemented as a result of this seminar.

European solar PV inventory depletion is accelerating, and export orders for Chinese PV modules are recovering. Improved project starts in distributed solar and ground-mounted power plants are gradually releasing procurement demand. This article examines how inventory drawdown and project construction translate into new orders, and outlines the delivery schedules, actual shipments, and demand sustainability that export companies should monitor. Click to learn about developments in the European market and identify signs of an order recovery, supporting export planning and business decisions.

Revision of industry standards for solar PV cleaning robots has begun, focusing on equipment reliability, cleaning efficiency, and safety during water-based operations. How will this revision affect product development, testing and validation, and procurement acceptance? Learn about the three key areas of focus to help equipment suppliers and power plant O&M teams understand the evaluation priorities and provide a reference for equipment selection and performance comparison. The new technical requirements are not yet in effect; specific criteria and implementation arrangements should be confirmed in subsequent documents.

The waterless solar panel cleaning robot has completed testing and entered pilot deployment. Featuring a polymer flexible roller brush and intelligent path-planning technology, each unit can clean more than 2,000 solar modules per hour without using water, offering a new cleaning solution for solar power plants in arid regions. Can the equipment deliver effective cleaning while protecting modules and keeping operating and maintenance costs economical? Click to learn about its technical highlights, application value, and key indicators to monitor during the pilot phase.
