Israeli robots will clear photo voltaic panels in Rajasthan, India, in a brand new $2.5 million settlement between two corporations. 

Airtouch Solar will provide its autonomous and waterless cleansing robots to Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), the main Indian power developer. Installation of the robotic methods is anticipated to be accomplished by early 2023. 

The robots use microfiber wipes and wind-blowing know-how to take away grime and soil from photo voltaic panels.

The firm says that the robots will have the ability to save 80,000 to 100,000 kiloliters of water per megawatt of power produced yearly, along with quicker cleansing. 

Currently, 95 % of the photo voltaic panel market operates with no robotic cleansing resolution. The photo voltaic panel robotic cleansing trade is estimated to be price $11 billion by the yr 2025 as reliance on different types of power grows.

“We view this strategic agreement with India’s largest renewable company, AGEL, as a significant milestone in expanding the company’s operations and foresee that the collaboration with AGEL has the potential to expand on a significant scale in India and abroad,” mentioned Tal Laufer, CEO of Airtouch Solar.

“This transaction is yet another layer in strengthening Adani Group’s relationship with the Israeli technology companies. With the signing of this agreement, Airtouch continues to solidify its position as a leading robotic cleaning company in the solar industry.”

Airtouch Solar was based in 2016, and relies in Beit Shemesh.
