Which variables are essential for renewable energies?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2020
Essential Variables are defined as a minimal set of variables that explain the state of the system. They are crucial for predicting its developments, and support metrics that measure its evolution. The variables should be relevant to meet requirements of

Impact, not impact factor [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
When the English philosopher Herbert Spencer introduced the phrase “survival of the fittest” in 1864, he could not have imagined that it would summarize the plight of young scientists years later (1). As competition for coveted faculty appointments and research funding continues to intensify, today’s researchers face relentless pressure to publish in ...

A New Approach for Satellite-Based Probabilistic Solar Forecasting with Cloud Motion Vectors

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Probabilistic solar forecasting is an issue of growing relevance for the integration of photovoltaic (PV) energy. However, for short-term applications, estimating the forecast uncertainty is challenging and usually delegated to statistical models.

Decoupling the effects of clear atmosphere and clouds to simplify calculations of the broadband solar irradiance at ground level [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2014
In the case of infinite plane-parallel single- and double-layered cloud, the solar irradiance at ground level computed by a radiative transfer model can be approximated by the product of the irradiance under clear atmosphere and a modification factor due
