Why dirty panels cost you
Dust, pollen and grime silently drain 7–15% of a plant's daily power. In India's dusty farm and factory belts, panels can get dirty within days. Manual cleaning is irregular, costs labour and uses a lot of water. Cleaning robots add machinery that can fail, and brushes touch the panel surface and can scratch it over time.
How Aran cleans your panels
Instead of a separate machine, the cleaning is built into the solar structure:
- High-pressure water nozzles are fixed into the structure, facing the panels.
- On a set schedule, they spray the panels clean — no brushes, no contact, no scratching.
- The water is collected below, filtered and reused in a closed loop; the structure can also channel rainwater into the same system.
- Your panels stay clean on their own, at almost no ongoing water or labour cost.

What you get
~7–10% more power
Consistently clean panels recover the power that dust quietly takes away.
No brush damage
Nothing touches the panel surface, so there's no scratching or abrasion.
Water reused
Closed-loop recovery and rainwater harvesting — workable even where water is scarce.
No cleaning bill
Almost no ongoing labour or water cost — a big saving over 25 years.
Built-in fire safety
Pressurised water across the array is ready to douse an electrical or heat fire.
No robots to maintain
No separate cleaning robot to buy, charge, store or repair.

Honest note
Our automated cleaning system is currently in its testing phase. Talk to us about your site and we'll tell you exactly what's ready for your project today — and how cleaning fits with the Aran tracker.
Best paired with the tracker
The cleaning system is built into the same structure as the Aran solar tracker, so you get both the tracker's power gain and consistently clean panels from one setup. See the solar tracker →
Common questions
How does automated solar panel cleaning work?
Aran builds high-pressure water nozzles directly into the solar structure. On a set schedule they spray the panels clean — no external machines, no brushes and no contact with the panel surface. The water is collected below, filtered and reused in a closed loop, so very little water is lost.
Why not use brushes or cleaning robots?
Brushes and robots touch the panel surface and can scratch it over time, and robots add machinery that can fail. Aran's water-jet cleaning has no brushes and no contact, so there's no abrasion risk, and there's no separate robot to buy or maintain.
How much extra power do clean panels give?
Dust and dirt can quietly cut 7–15% of a plant's daily power. Keeping panels consistently clean recovers much of that — about 7–10% more power in typical conditions. Figures are illustrative; ask for a site-specific estimate.
Does it use a lot of water?
No. The cleaning water is collected, filtered and reused in a closed loop, and the structure can channel rainwater into the same system. This makes it workable even where water is scarce.
