Solar radiation prediction

I

rSOLaV offers solar radiation predictions with different time steps: hourly, half daily and daily. The horizon of the predictions is up to 180 hours. CSP and PV plants need reliable predictions of solar irradiance to make a correct managment and operation. Besides, for the energy production planning, IrSOLaV offers predictions in format for daily and intra-daily electric energy market. Predictions can be accessed in different ways: database, email, ftp, through solarexplorer.info, ...

Solar radiation estimation derived from satellite images

I

rSOLaV has the metodology to offer hourly values of global and direct normal solar irradiance (and other projected components with solar tracking) for the years 1994-2005 in any location. The analysis of solar energy systems are based on the detailled study and simulation of solar energy power plants as the estimation of thermal and electrical production of the plant.
