To keep a solar-powered HAPS flying continuously, its power generation must exceed its consumption. While predicting the power consumption of the motors is straightforward, predicting the power ...

Researchers at the University of Isfahan in Iran claim to have improved the precision of digital elevation models (DEMs) in creating high-resolution annual solar energy potential maps. DEMs are 3D ...

A team of Sweden-based researchers has developed a snow loss model to estimate snow-induced PV power losses on an hourly basis. The proposed approach relies solely on data from remote sensing sources, ...

Solar energy is the renewable success story of our time. In the last decade, it’s become 10x cheaper and it’s one of the fastest growing energy classes today with solar panel installed capacity set to ...

A team of scientists has, for the first time, used a single, cohesive computer model to simulate the entire life cycle of a solar flare: from the buildup of energy thousands of kilometers below the ...

As energy bills climb, tax incentives become more generous and environmental concerns grow, more homeowners are turning to solar power. Spring brings longer days and more sunshine, so you might want ...
