Most solar farms ground mounts are cleaned by tractor mounted set ups now , thank goodness, it’s mind numbingly boring work we stoped doing them years ago as all staff got so demoralised doing them .

Just looks like decent amount of dust. Only 18 months old.

I’d be wanting more than 50p a panel. If they’re ground mounted probably start somewhere round the 65-75p a panel. It’s tediously boring work. If they’re roof mounted lots more money-wise.

Look to do £400 - £450 + per day on them.

Years ago if you did stuff for  SS you needed to clean 1,000 panels a day for  around £250 😂😂😂😂 he wondered why we turned it down .

Guys with sunbrush will be doing it about £500 a MW. Unless you’re using machines, don’t waste your time.

Thanks for the replied, I’m not fussed so will go in at a higher price. 

Tractor and brush is the way forward though!!!

Thanks.

It’s a bit like this. You’ll need about 4000mm from top to bottom.

I think they’re about 8M in height. 4 panels and each one is about 2200mm in height.

What’s your number. I’ll ring you tomorrow.

8m is huge! Most are 6max. Sunbrush for tractor is 6m. They’d do two passes.
Definitely be a nightmare to do it by hand.
No good for my machine I’m afraid.
