Photovoltaic panels (PVs), employing semiconductors to harness solar irradiance andconvert it into electrical energy, have become pivotal in meeting this growing energy need.Despite all the technological advances, the conversion efficiency of most commercially availablePVs is around 20%. To address the effect of soiling on the PV efficiency, self-cleaning coatingshave been developed. These coatings can be categorized into two main

Meanwhile, they also learned a lot: 1. Engineering truly can affect people’s lives even in a remote region. 2. The best technology is not necessary the state-of-art technology, but the one suitable for the settings and meet the needs. 3. The engineering solution is subject to the working constraints, especially the local infrastructure. 4.

Likewise, many students attend MGC for two years before transferring to SouthernPolytechnic State University or Georgia Southern University to complete the requirements for aBachelor’s degree in Engineering Technology.

In recognition of thisimportance, academic institutions allocate substantial resources to provide such support insideand outside of class.
