Solar panel deployment is vital to generate clean energy and reduce carbon emissions, but sustaining energy output requires regular monitoring and maintenance. This is particularly critical in countries with harsh environmental conditions, such as Qatar, where high dust density reduces solar radiation reaching panels, thereby lowering generating efficiency and increasing maintenance costs. This paper introduces a data-driven model that uses the relationship between generated and consumed energy to track changes in solar panel performance. By applying statistical analysis to real and simulated data, the model identifies when efficiency losses are within the parameters of normal variation (e.g., daily fluctuations) and when they are likely caused by dust accumulation or system ageing. The findings demonstrate that the model provides a reliable and cost-effective way to support timely cleaning and maintenance decisions. It offers decision-makers a practical tool to improve residential solar panel management, reducing unnecessary costs, and ensuring more consistent renewable energy generation.
