Ecoppia’s mission is to provide superior-quality, innovative technologies to the PV sector. It was founded in 2013 and is the pioneer and global leader in robotic cleaning solutions for PV, providing a cloud-based platform and a suite of sophisticated, completely autonomous robots that cost-effectively maximize the performance of utility-scale PV installations throughout the world.
The cloud-based, water-free robots, which remove soil from solar panels on a daily basis, will be installed in the second quarter of 2022 at Sprng Solar’s 150-MW Ananthapuram project in Andhra Pradesh, the Israeli business said last week.

It claimed that during India’s over 150-day national lockdown in 2020 and 2021, none of their installations, totaling more than 2 GW, encountered any cleaning disruptions.
For almost a decade, the company has been innovating the solar market with over 3GW of projects in 4 different continents, allowing site owners to enjoy the benefits of a year-round peak performance while lowering their O&M expenses and overall, their LCOE.
