Inventor(s) include Kailash Prasad Dewangan; Apurva Khandekar; and Jitendra Prithviraj.
The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an automated solar panel cleaning system integrating a robotic cleaning system (RCS) with a wireless sensor network (WSN) and a central control unit (CCU). The system comprises solar panels (101), batteries (102), Arduino boards (103), sensors (104), servo motors (105), and a cleaning process (106). The wireless sensor network (WSN)collects environmental data, while the central control unit (CCU) analyzes it to control the robotic cleaning system (RCS) for efficient cleaning. A user-friendly interface enables real-time monitoring and manual intervention. The system aims to enhance solar panel performance, reduce maintenance costs, and minimize environmental impact. It is evaluated for cost-effectiveness compared to manual methods. This invention revolutionizes solar panel maintenance, offering a comprehensive solution for efficient operation and sustainability."
