ISCA Events
ISCA Awards
The ISCA Awards recognise the best of the best of the solar cleaning industry.
Contractors, companies, and individuals raising standards across the solar cleaning industry are given the limelight and rewarded for their efforts.
Held annually as part of the Solar Panel Cleaning Convention, the awards bring together leading operators from across the U.S. and internationally.
This prestigious event is not participation recognition—it is earned distinction within a rapidly evolving, high-risk sector.
This is where companies and individuals grow their business, by being able to say they are ISCA award winners.
The Solar Cleaning Room
A private, fully curated experience for a select group of solar cleaning operators.
Limited to just a handful of attendees, The Solar Cleaning Room is designed for serious operators who want to step back, analyse their business, and make decisive progress.
No presentations.
No spectators.
No filler.
Just structured sessions, real conversations, and a controlled environment focused on growth, performance, and direction.
This is where operators move from running a business… to building one properly.
