Module Cleaning Efficiency Reports
Every PlasmaBerry service visit produces an MCE report — a data-backed, irradiance-normalised measure of exactly how much generation was recovered by the cleaning.

A Measurable Metric for Every Clean
Module Cleaning Efficiency (MCE) is PlasmaBerry's proprietary performance metric, generated by the Helios™ AI platform after every service visit. Rather than relying on visual inspection or anecdotal feedback, MCE uses irradiance-normalised generation data — measured before and after cleaning — to produce a single, comparable score that tells you exactly how much energy output was recovered.
- Irradiance-normalised — weather and time-of-day variations are factored out
- Measured before and after every service visit
- Expressed as a percentage generation recovery
- Stored in Helios™ for trend analysis and audit
- Comparable across visits, plants and time periods
- Available to asset owners through the Helios™ dashboard
The MCE Measurement Process
Pre-Service Baseline
Before cleaning begins, Helios™ records the plant's generation output and logs the prevailing irradiance conditions. This establishes the soiled-state baseline.
Service Execution
PlasmaBerry technicians carry out the scheduled cleaning — dry brush, semi-automatic, Sprinko automated or Jetsons Zero robotic — as per the plant's service plan.
Post-Service Measurement
After cleaning, generation output is re-measured under comparable irradiance conditions. Helios™ normalises both readings to remove weather variability.
MCE Score Calculation
The AI engine calculates the percentage improvement in normalised generation output — this is the MCE score for the visit.
Report Generation
Helios™ compiles the MCE score, before/after photo evidence, technician details and service notes into a structured report delivered to the asset owner.
A Typical Helios™ Cleaning Efficiency Report
After every service visit, Helios™ automatically generates a structured report like this — delivered to the asset owner with dust removal data, generation gain, soiling index trends and technician observations.
Dust & Dirt Removed
Quantified surface soiling removal measured after the cleaning visit.
Expected Generation Gain
Projected improvement in energy yield based on post-clean irradiance-normalised data.
Soiling Index (DASI/day)
Daily Average Soiling Index tracked over time to optimise future cleaning frequency.
Days Since Last Cleaning
Service interval logged automatically — used to calibrate the recommended cleaning schedule.
What's Inside an MCE Report
Plant & Visit Details
Site name, capacity, service date, technician ID and cleaning method used.
Pre-Clean Generation Data
Irradiance-normalised output recorded before the service visit begins.
Post-Clean Generation Data
Irradiance-normalised output recorded after cleaning is complete.
MCE Score
Percentage generation recovery — the headline metric for the visit.
Before & After Photo Evidence
Timestamped photos of module condition before and after cleaning, uploaded by the technician.
Observations & Recommendations
Technician notes on module condition, shading issues, hotspots or maintenance flags identified during the visit.
From Anecdote to Evidence
Most solar cleaning providers offer a photo and a signature. PlasmaBerry offers data. MCE reports give asset owners, O&M managers and investors a verifiable, auditable record of cleaning performance — useful for insurance claims, asset valuations, lender reporting and performance benchmarking.
Asset Owners
Know exactly what generation you recovered from every cleaning visit. Track MCE trends over time to optimise cleaning frequency.
O&M Managers
Demonstrate cleaning ROI to stakeholders with data, not photos. Use MCE trends to identify underperforming plants or modules.
EPC Contractors
Protect yourself from performance disputes. MCE reports provide independent, AI-generated evidence of cleaning effectiveness.
Investors & Lenders
Verify that O&M obligations are being met with auditable, timestamped reports — not just service logs.
MCE Reports Are Built Into Every Service
Helios™ is PlasmaBerry's AI service intelligence platform. MCE reporting is not an add-on — it is generated automatically for every service visit, stored in your plant's service history and accessible through the Helios™ dashboard at any time.
