Introduction
Islamabad and Punjab, Pakistan, are no strangers to extreme weather events, with hailstorms being a recurring challenge, especially during spring and monsoon seasons. These storms bring heavy rainfall, strong winds, and baseball-sized hailstones that can wreak havoc on infrastructure, including solar energy systems. For solar panel owners, hailstorms pose a dual threat: physical damage to panels and reduced efficiency due to post-storm debris. This is where Green Clean, Islamabad’s leading solar panel cleaning and maintenance company, steps in to safeguard your solar investment.
Understanding the Impact of Hailstorms on Solar Panels
Hailstorms in Punjab and Islamabad can cause:
- Cracks and Microfractures: Hailstones striking panels at high speeds can damage the protective glass layer, reducing energy output.
- Dirt and Debris Accumulation: Post-storm residue like dust, leaves, and mud further blocks sunlight, lowering efficiency.
- Water Spotting: Rain mixed with dust can leave stubborn mineral deposits, affecting long-term performance.
For solar-dependent homes and businesses, these issues translate to higher energy bills and shorter panel lifespans.
