Solar panels in New York can get quite dirty. There are many external influences that cause solar panels in New York to become dirty, including dust, dirt and pollutants in the atmosphere, bugs, spider webs and bird droppings to name a few.

It has generally been accepted that the rain would clean the panels but here in New York with a lot of days of sunshine on average we don’t see frequent rain, and when it does rain in New York the amount of dust in our atmosphere combined with the rain usually leaves dirt spots behind.
