Chemitek Solar has announced a new range of cleaning solutions specifically designed for agrivoltaic systems. These systems present unique challenges such as organic soiling, agricultural residues, limited accessibility and the presence of crops, which can limit the application of cleaning products, requiring carefully tailored solutions to avoid interference with agricultural activities.
Chemitek has two new solutions for this market:
AgroPV Wash Protect (AWP) — A biodegradable cleaning and protective solution designed to remove organic soiling and agricultural residues while applying an antistatic coating that delays re-soiling.
AgroPV Water Softening Agent (AWS) — Specifically formulated to treat hard and very hard water in agricultural environments, preventing mineral deposits and ensuring optimal panel performance.
These solutions are independently tested, ensuring:
- Compatibility with seed germination and plant growth
- Ecotoxicity assessment
- Biodegradability
- Certified as safe for PV modules and crops by independent laboratories
Designed for versatility, AgroPV Wash Protect and AgroPV Water Softening Agent can be applied using traditional methods (manual brushes, robotic cleaners) and are effective across a wide range of agricultural photovoltaic installations.
“AgroPV systems are a fast-growing segment worldwide. Our mission is to provide innovative and sustainable solutions tailored to their unique challenges,” said César Martins, CEO of Chemitek.
The official launch of these AgroPV solutions is scheduled for Intersolar Europe 2026, where they will be presented to the international market. Distribution will be ensured through Chemitek’s global partner network.
