Researchers in Brazil have developed a weighted PV inverter efficiency methodology that accounts for country-specific solar irradiance and operating conditions. The approach is designed to address the ...

The field of photovoltaic (PV) engineering is faced with emerging challenges as global installations expand rapidly, especially in regions characterized by ...

In a new weekly update for pv magazine, Solcast, a DNV company, reports that destabilized polar circulation in February produced wet and cloudy conditions in some parts of North America, while the ...

The spectral composition of the Sun’s output is not constant but varies over multiple timescales, from days to decadal cycles. Solar spectral irradiance variability (SSI) refers to the changes in the ...

Solar irradiance is the power per unit area received from the Sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation as measured in the wavelength range of the measuring instrument. The solar irradiance is ...

In a new weekly update for pv magazine, Solcast, a DNV company, reports that February saw a sharp East Asia solar divide, with southern China and Taiwan experiencing record-high irradiance due to ...

A very small instrument has a big job ahead of it: measuring all Earth-directed energy coming from the Sun and helping scientists understand how that energy influences our planet’s severe weather, ...

We live on a solar-powered planet. As we wake up in the morning, the Sun peeks over the horizon to shed light on us, blanket us with warmth and provide cues to start our day. At the same time, our Sun ...

Parts of Belgium, Germany and the UK have seen their solar irradiance increase up to 50% above average in March 2025. Image: Solargis Solar irradiation in Western Europe has increased by 50% ...
