Abstract:
A system and method for removing debris from solar modules in a solar module array. The system includes an air supply for providing pressurized air to a debris removal wing, a support art configured to support the debris removal wing proximate a solar module, and a support base fixing the support arm to a vehicle, the vehicle operable to advance the debris removal wing along the solar module array. The debris removal wing includes a first air outlet for directed pressurized air to remove debris from the solar modules. The debris removal wing may include a second air outlet for directing pressurized air to at least partly hovering the debris removal wing proximate the solar modules.
