Solargis CEO Marcel Suri tells PV Tech Premium how more sophisticated data has made solar assets more 'agile'.

Since solar irradiance is about 120 W/m² (PDF warning), [Markus] is concentrating a lot of energy onto a point the size of a quarter, which would be necessary to heat up sand to its 1500° C ...

images and global solar irradiance measurements. The scientists claim that the novel approach is able to improve solar nowcasting and intra-hour forecasting, while being applicable to PV real-time ...

Sudden spikes in irradiance can affect the components of ... Dutch researchers recently observed solar power generation peaks may be stronger in partially cloudy conditions than from clear skies.

The research team was interested in specifically understanding wildfire smoke's impact on irradiance—the amount of solar light making its way to the surface of a panel to be collected.

How wildfire smoke affects solar energy, reducing irradiance and PV efficiency across the U.S. as wildfires grow in frequency ...
