This study presents an AI-assisted soiling detection methodology for inspecting solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, using UAV-captured RGB images. . Proper solar panel maintenance begins with regularly monitoring your system's output. While many homeowners enjoy watching their energy bill savings increase alongside solar electricity production, monitoring your solar system can be a daily or weekly routine to ensure everything is working as. . Therefore, the development of a system that can automatically clean panel surfaces and regulate panel temperature becomes crucial in optimizing solar energy-based electricity generation.
