Neural Network Models for Solar Irradiance Forecasting in Polluted Areas: A Comparative Study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Pollution‐aware hybrid ensemble model is proposed to forecast solar irradiance across eight diverse cities. The model integrates MLP, RNN, and NARX to handle varying atmospheric pollution levels. The model outperforms state‐of‐the‐art methods with enhanced accuracy and interpretability on standard solar irradiance data set.
