This review examines the impact of dust on PV performance and evaluates cleaning approaches, including electrostatic removal, super hydrophobic and super hydrophilic coatings, surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology, robotic systems, and manual methods. . In response to these challenges, a novel automated mechanism for cleaning solar panels is introduced in this paper, effectively eliminating dust particles. The analytical findings strongly indicate that consistent and periodic cleaning of panels can uphold a stable rate of electricity generation. . Dust deposition on PV modules is a critical issue, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, as it reduces light transmission and causes significant power losses.

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the microgrid (MG) concept, including its definitions, challenges, advantages, components, structures, communication systems, and control methods, focusing on low-bandwidth (LB), wireless (WL), and wired control approaches. . NLR develops and evaluates microgrid controls at multiple time scales. Generally, an MG is a. . Microgrids are small-scale power grids that operate independently to generate electricity for a localized area, such as a university campus, hospital complex, military base or geographical region. This system integrates diverse power sources, such as solar arrays, wind turbines, and battery storage, collectively known as Distributed Energy Resources (DERs).
