Evaluation of the Solar Energy Nowcasting System (SENSE) during a 12-Months Intensive Measurement Campaign in Athens, Greece

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Energy nowcasting is a valuable asset in managing energy loads and having real-time information on solar irradiation availability. In this study, we evaluate the spectrally integrated outputs of the SENSE system for solar irradiance nowcasting for the ...

Application of small angle approximation in circumsolar irradiance modelling

open access: yesSolar Energy Advances, 2021
Circumsolar irradiance is the part of diffuse or scattered irradiance within a small angle (2.5° for typical pyrheliometers) around the sun which is measured, together with direct normal irradiance, by pyrheliometers and reported as part of the direct ...

Indoor Daylighting and Thermal Response of a Passive Solar Building to Selective Components of Solar Radiation

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
Solar radiation provides the most significant natural energy in buildings for space heating and daylighting. Due to atmospheric interference, solar radiation received at the Earth’s surface consists of direct beam and diffuse radiation, where diffuse can

Blind photovoltaic modeling intercomparison: A multidimensional data analysis and lessons learned

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 31, Issue 11, Page 1144-1157, November 2023., 2023
In this blind photovoltaic modeling intercomparison, most software and models exhibited similar results indicating good reproducibility among participants, especially when compared with the 2010 PVPMC intercomparison. For example, the spread in estimated annual energy yield among PVsyst participants is now ~6% compared with ~33% in 2010.

Low‐cost outdoor spectral irradiances determination and its application on Concentrator Photovoltaic module power rating and energy yield calculation

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 591-597, June 2023., 2023
A simple method to calculate the aerosol content in the atmosphere and the prevailing spectral irradiance of the sunlight is introduced. A weather station and a pyrheliometer are sufficient for the determination of the prevailing spectral irradiance using this method.

A density‐based time‐series data analysis methodology for shadow detection in rooftop photovoltaic systems

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 506-523, May 2023., 2023
In this study, a new algorithmic tool is introduced that creates a reference data set through the combination of data sets of the unshaded PV systems in the surrounding area. It subsequently compares the created reference data set with the one of the PV systems of interest, detects any energy loss and clusters the distinctive loss due to shadow ...

COVID‐19 Pandemic Reveals Distinct Impact of Aerosols on Surface Solar Radiation in China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 5, 16 March 2023., 2023
Abstract With the abrupt and significant drop of PM2.5 concentrations during the lockdown in 2020, hourly direct radiation (Rdir) at surface substantially increased in East China, such as Zhengzhou, Wuhan and Baoshan, with the maximum enhancement of 86% at Wuhan. Most of these stations had decreased diffuse radiation (Rdif) except Zhengzhou.
