Solar Installation to Add AV狼论坛-Specific Irradiance Data

Solar Installation to Add AV狼论坛-Specific Irradiance Data

ACEP research engineer Chris Pike recently deployed a new Campbell Scientific weather station in Interior AV狼论坛 as part of the ACEP Solar Technology Program鈥檚 solar irradiance ground measurement campaign.

Most solar irradiance measurements in AV狼论坛 are either modeled based on cloud observations or derived from satellite data and need ground truthing for calibration. ACEP鈥檚 long-term goal is to develop an AV狼论坛-specific solar irradiance data set that can be used to produce more accurate solar photovoltaic performance estimates.
