Dust, Debris, and Efficiency Loss

In many parts of South Sudan, the dry season brings thick layers of dust. Dust particles settle on the solar panel’s surface, blocking sunlight and reducing output.

Studies show that dirty panels can suffer 10–25% power loss.

The Overlooked Energy Booster

While some believe rain will wash off the dust, it’s not sufficient. Rain often leaves streaks, mineral deposits, and sticky mud on panel surfaces, especially in flood-prone areas.

Sudd Green Energy’s Cleaning Protocol

We use:

• Soft, non-abrasive brushes
• pH-neutral, water-conserving sprays
• Trained technicians who understand the sensitivity of PV materials

For large-scale solar farms, we’re piloting semi-automated cleaning systems designed for East African terrain.

Reducing Downtime in Essential Services

We maintain solar systems powering hospitals, water pumps, refugee centers, and schools. Downtime in these settings can mean the difference between life and death.

Our 24/7 emergency maintenance teams are trained to respond within hours in crisis-prone areas.

Calibration is the process of configuring each component of a solar system—solar panels, inverters, batteries, and controllers—to ensure they work in sync under the specific environmental conditions of the installation site.
