ASTM International said its F45 Robotics, Automation, and Autonomous Systems Committee is developing a standard for the evaluation of robots that clean solar panels. The organization said it will help modernize solar panel cleaning systems.
Solar panel cleaning is a relatively new industry, with the oldest manufacturers of such technology being about 15 years old, noted Carla Dawson, an ASTM member and founder and advisor at Solar Panel Cleaning Technologies & Safety. As the industry rapidly grows, standards are needed for safety, asset protection, and water conservation, she said.
