Abstract: AN AUTOMATED SOLAR PANEL CLEANING SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF An automated solar panel (102) cleaning system and method thereof is disclosed. The system automatically initiates cleaning cycles based on the detected dust level and environmental conditions, ensuring optimal efficiency of solar panel (102). A dust detection unit includes a plurality of sensor to detect presence of dust and an environment monitor to monitor real time environmental conditions. The AI control unit (110) analyzes the detected data with the predetermined stored data, and locates area that require cleaning. The AI control unit (110) activates a cleaning mechanism and an autonomous movement unit (108). The cleaning mechanism, including a cleaning robot (106), is positioned on a track i.e., moved by the autonomous movement unit (108) for cleaning the surface of the solar panel (102). A power module (112) receives power from a solar battery unit. The AI control unit (110) along with the sensors completes post-cleaning verification and logs relevant data i.e., stored securely.
