So having had them installed on 4th March i now have my first bird poo on one ! So whats the score regarding this problem . Surely over time several bird poos must interfere with the generation ?
Haven't had any rain since the install so a bit of the poo will wash off in the rain but what about the summer when we can go weeks without any ?

I wouldn't worry about it too much, unless you're near the seaside and have regular flocks of seagulls depositing on your panels. It will wash off in the rain...eventually, as for generation, they would have cover a full area(like shading) to cause you any probs.2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0
