Solar savings are also geographically sensitive since every state has different incentives, electricity rates, sun exposure, and net metering policies.For example, a solar panel cost calculator for California would have drastically different assumptions than a cost calculator for New York....

The estimation of the solar irradiation of roof surfaces is one of the prominent use-cases of 3D city models. This use-case is important for estimating the feasibility of installing a photovoltaic panel on a roof. Such estimations are usually done on a large-scale, e.g. on the area of ...
Recently, machine and deep learning models have emerged as an efficient tool to predict surface soil moisture at high spatial and temporal scales43,44,45. Unlike physical models, machine or deep learning models are data-driven. They combine different relevant input features to map the output. For...
The photovoltaic cell conversion efficiency (畏) and the maximum power point generated (Pmpp), is reduced by radiation (E) and temperature (T) variation, affecting the output current (Io) and output voltage (Vo) respectively. This paper presents a practical method to calculate the energy ...
The objective of this methodology is to estimate a power profile of one year (hour by hour) for a PV panel operating under partial shading conditions produced by surrounding objects. The proposed methodology is composed by five elements: (i) calculation of solar paths, (ii) calculation of the...
This study used four estimation methods, with weather parameters as the input data and solar irradiance as the output. Based on eight years of training data and one year of testing data, the solar irradiance values were estimated and evaluated by comparison with real values. The performances of...
Hourly data for direct normal irradiance and diffuse horizontal irradiance were downloaded from Solcast (Solcast, 2019, Global solar irradiance data and PV system power output data, URL https://solcast.com/ (accessed on 21 January 2021)), a global solar forecasting and historical solar irradiance ...
The architecture of the LSTM can be summarized as a combination of three types of gates (forget gate, input gate, and output gate). LSTM advantages gates to add or remove information to the cell state [26]. The equation for all gates (forget 𝑓𝑡ft, input 𝑖𝑡it, and output ...
