title = "Soiling Impact on Grid Operations"

content = """
Soiling (dust and debris on solar panels) reduces irradiance capture and thus generation.
In the Gulf, frequent dust events make soiling a major operational factor affecting
availability and dispatch.

**Operational Impact:** Heavily soiled plants may not meet forecasted output, causing
schedule deviation. Cleaning schedules must be coordinated with grid operations to
minimize impact during high-value periods. Post-cleaning, output ramps up; ramp rates
must be respected.

**Forecasting:** Soiling models improve forecast accuracy. Operations integrate soiling
state into dispatch and curtailment decisions.

**Reporting:** Soiling-related underperformance is distinguished from grid curtailment
in availability and performance reports. Accurate attribution supports maintenance
planning and contract discussions.
