In this work, we propose a methodology that uses a machine learning approach to estimate different levels of dust accumulation in photovoltaic panels. . The dust deposition on the surfaces is a complex phenomenon which depends on a large number of different environmental and technical factors, such as location, weather parameters, pollution, tilt angle and surface roughness. Hence, it becomes crucial to investigate the key parameters which. . Thus, it is necessary to develop techniques that allow us to assess the level of dust accumulation in the panel surface in order to schedule a proper maintenance and avoid losses associated with the reduction of the delivered power and unexpected faults. Solar panels generate electricity when sunlight reaches their photovoltaic (PV) cells. This study presents a comprehensive review and analysis of the influence of dust deposition. .
