Easiest way to do them from a distance would be a pressure washer.  Knock the excess off with a broom and pressure wash and rinse.  I have done jobs like this with a broom and a detergent solution rinsing with a hose afterwards but a pressure washer is much easier.  Try not to direct the jet under the lead flashing or sensitive areas.  If you have to hire one charge accordingly.
 
To finish the glass when dry use an angle strip washer and an angle squeegee and do the best you can.  After all it is a roof.

Subject: [World] ALGAE REMOVAL

Hi Group,
Can anyone advise me the correct detergent and method for removing the green algae from conservatory roofs of some new residential work I've just acquired, they all have conservatories and all covered with this algae.
I do not want to scratch these semi/clear roof panels so any good advice would be appreciated.
All the panels are triangular and finish to a point approx 3 to 4 metres long making them difficult to use a stripwasher and squeegee where they narrow to a point.
