The optical systems tended to underestimate the soiling at the Utah RD site in the summer of 2019 as well as during snow events. The Eclipse and RD300 agree the best out of the 5 soiling measurement systems. This could be due to full-size high quality modules and similar measurement methods. The soiling tool results have a tight correlation with the linear regression calculation method. This helps to verify the accuracy of the soiling tool. Optical soiling measurement systems have promise due to the fact there is minimal maintenance and price but the measurements aren’t quite as accurate as using the short circuit current method with full size modules. Interannual variability is hard to measure over smaller intervals. The Utah RD site experienced different weather and environmental conditions over two years. These include, but are not limited to, a bad fire season causing increased particulates, a snowy winter, and bird migrations causing droppings and frequent resets in the spring months. © GroundWork Renewables, Inc. | All Rights Reserved 24 WHAT’S NEXT Uncertainty analysis Bifacial soiling Improved normalization techniques and optical sensor data processing Assess impact of light soak on normalization stability Historical dataset coupling −Rain
