About

Noriah Nor Adzman is a leading researcher in renewable energy systems, specializing in photovoltaic (PV) technology and sustainable energy management. Her most impactful work addresses a critical challenge in solar energy: the efficiency loss caused by dust accumulation on PV panels. In her highly cited 2018 paper, "Advances in approaches and methods for self-cleaning of solar photovoltaic panels," she systematically reviews and advances self-cleaning technologies, from hydrophobic coatings to automated cleaning systems, providing a comprehensive framework that has become essential for researchers and engineers optimizing solar farm performance. This work has garnered over 260 citations, reflecting its foundational role in the field. Beyond this, Dr. Nor Adzman has contributed to power system reliability, fault detection, and grid integration of renewables, often collaborating on projects that bridge laboratory innovation with real-world deployment. Her research is widely recognized for its practical impact, influencing maintenance protocols and design standards in tropical climates where dust accumulation is severe. A dedicated educator and mentor, she continues to shape the next generation of energy engineers through her teaching and supervision.
