The importance of needing for renewable energy sources is completely clear. The sun is
one of the biggest and most reliable sources and two types of major devices for extracting …

A new model of the optimum tilt angle of a soiled photovoltaic (PV) panel is proposed in this
paper. The tilt angle is a key factor that influences the output power of PV panel, while dust …

This review focuses on the solar irradiance model chain for horizontal-to-tilted irradiance
conversion at high latitudes. The main goals of the work are 1) to assess the extent to which …

This study aims to develop a gridded optimization model for studying photovoltaic
applications in Nordic countries. The model uses the spatial and temporal data generated by …

In this paper, we present the results of a simulation of a 3 MWp photovoltaic plant in Nigeria
using four case study scenarios: ground-mounted fixed inclined monofacial, and bifacial …

Nigeria's annual solar radiation is estimated to be between 1400 and 2500 kWh/m 2. This
has made the use of solar energy to generate power in the country feasible. We investigated …

In this article, a methodology based in Voronoi decomposition is proposed to spatially
aggregate small-scale solar generation. The locations of relevant electrical infrastructure are …

This research develops and validates new decomposition models for hourly direct Normal
Irradiance (DNI) estimations for Southern African data. Localised models were developed …

It is a very important and fundamental process to know accurately the intensity of the solar
energy coming into the installed module considering the tilted angle. Europe and the US …

Solar energy represents 2.6% of the electricity matrix in Brazil, according to 2022 data from
Operador Nacional do Sistema Elétrico (ONS), a significant increase compared to 2020 …
