Robust Performance Loss Rate Calculation for Photovoltaic Systems in High Latitude Locations
Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.This work studies the best methods for performance loss rate (PLR) calculation in high latitude locations, characterized by strong seasonal variability. As the different methods can drastically affect the PLR value, an ensemble method consisting of multiple approaches was validated to be essential in identifying robust PLRs.

IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.We propose a physics‐based framework to compute the theoretical lower bound of day‐ahead PV power forecast errors from NWP uncertainty. Using ECMWF HRES forecasts and Desert Rock measurements, we compare this limit with advanced machine‐learning models.
