The first gathering of the International Solar Cleaning Academy was recently held in Las Vegas. The group’s first convention brought together industry leaders, solar cleaning professionals and safety advocates to discuss innovations, share knowledge and celebrate excellence within the solar panel cleaning sector.
The two-day program in November featured a mix of keynote speeches, panel discussions, practical demonstrations and solar panel cleaning health and safety training. A gala awards ceremony culminated the event, honoring individuals and organizations that have demonstrated exceptional contributions to the solar cleaning industry. Among the standout winners were:
- Utility-Scale Solar Panel Clean of the Year: Puerto Rico-based UV Protek received this award for its exceptional work in maintaining utility-scale solar installations, a testament to their precision and efficiency.
- Global Solar Cleaning Contractor of the Year: This award also went to UV Protek, recognizing its rapid growth, unparalleled excellence and leadership on the global stage.
- Young Solar Cleaner of the Year: Awarded to Josh Laine from California-based Solar Shine LLC, recognizing Josh’s entrepreneurism, willingness to learn and implement both safety and innovation in his thriving solar panel cleaning business.
As the solar industry continues to grow, the ISCA Convention intends to hold future gatherings. Plans are already underway for the next event to be held Nov. 13-14, 2025.
