We experimentally studied the electrical efficiency effects of naturally forming atmospheric dust deposits on commercial photovoltaic panels. The variable considered for measurements was the electric potential for three commercial silicon modules: monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and amorphous. A mathematical model was developed to determine maximum potential as a function of temperature and of total incident radiation. The study presents two essential parts: the naturally deposited dust particles and the variation in maximum electric potential between clean and dirty modules. The results indicate that the maximum reduction in potential is around of 6% for monocrystalline and polycrystalline modules and of 12% for the amorphous silicon.
