Vietnam is a country emerging in solar energy as Asia races to fight climate change, the country ranks seventh in the world in terms of installed solar capacity. The country gives a tremendous push towards renewable power to fit its growing demand for power to fuel economic growth with long coastline with consistent high radiation levels for solar. Due to the change in climatic conditions in Vietnam the efficiency of the solar panel will reduce and maintaining the panels over large capacity is difficult. Robots can play a significant role in maintenance of photovoltaics. As the country’s future economy based on renewable power several action by human activities can be greatly reduced. Robot installation in PV industry helps in lowering production cost in solar cell, effective cleaning and ensure the sustainability of solar cell. Robots and Automation magnifies the power production in solar farms and tends to provide a constant efficiency in solar cells achieving country’s energy demand.
