Engineers develop incredible wind-powered solution for common issue with solar panels: 'Will reduce the maintenance costs'

A layer of dust on a solar panel may not seem like a big deal, but it's actually a major issue when it comes to a panel's functionality, efficiency, and longevity. This issue is particularly concerning for solar panels that aren't within easy reach of water-based cleaning systems, such as systems in the desert, the high mountains, or even outer space.  Fortunately, one research team's "breakthrough" discovery is promising a new way to clean dust…
