Self-Cleaning Solar Panels

Solar power has been playing a key role in the collective efforts toward clean energy.It is projected it will contribute about 10 percent of global electricity generation by 2030,and most of that will be highly likely located in desert areas with abundant sunlight.Building solar power farms or parks in desert areas not only can better utilize the barren land,but also can help increase the total power output per unit area since typically desert has less cloud cover and better solar angle.
