This article proposes a dynamic analysis and design method for the cleaning cycle of photovoltaic modules which considers the cleaning effect of natural rainfall on dust deposition and its impact on power generation. This method uses the correlation graph method and correlation analysis to determine the main factors affecting the cleanliness and power generation of photovoltaic modules. Based on this, a quantitative relationship between rainfall and dust deposition is established, and a power generation prediction model considering the impact of dust deposition is applied to dynamically update or adjust the cleaning cycle. The proposed method was applied to the formulation of a cleaning strategy for a photovoltaic power plant in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The results showed that the total cleaning cost under the dynamic update strategy of the cleaning cycle was reduced by 20.04% compared to the non-cleaning method, and by 3.63% compared to the fixed cleaning cycle method.
