Addressing the rapidly growing penetration of renewable energy sources and the increasing
variations in loads has been a significant challenge in the planning and operation of modern …

As one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources, the integration of solar power
poses great challenges to power systems due to its variable and uncertain nature. As an …

Photovoltaic (PV) power generation is playing a prominent role in rural power generation
systems due to its low operating and maintenance cost. The output properties of solar PV …

We illustrate and compare commonly used benchmark, or reference, methods for
probabilistic solar forecasting that researchers use to measure the performance of their …

Around the world, countries are integrating photovoltaic generating systems to the grid to
support climate change initiatives. However, solar power generation is highly uncertain due …

Scenario generation has attracted wide attention in recent years owing to the high
penetration of uncertainty sources in modern power systems and the introduction of …

We present a scenario generation method for representative days of wind and solar power
availability for use in energy-system models. The method uses principal component analysis …

Transposition models convert the solar irradiance received on a horizontal surface to in-
plane irradiance. All transposition models to date, unfortunately, only produce deterministic …

Driven by ambitious renewable portfolio standards, large-scale inclusion of variable energy
resources (such as wind and solar) are expected to introduce unprecedented levels of …

This work is aimed at analysing the impact of real-time weather forecasting on the simulation
of solar thermal electricity plants. A novel method is presented that allows generating …
