Do you get out of your car to wipe your windscreen when its raining? This cleaning problem seems like something that would be super easy to automate, I dunno why they would higher 30 people to do this when you could higher one engineer.

Just add a bit of water™

How come that number of rovers on Mars dies due to dust on its panels? If it's a simple problem to solve why would NASA let them die?

Water shortage is also present on that power plant.

There are many PV cleaning robots already on the market. Google for them.
