Typical meteorological year (TMY) is a collation of selected weather data for a specific location, listing hourly values of solar radiation and meteorological elements for a one-year period. The values are generated from a data bank much longer than a year in duration, at least 12 years.

The finding that solar activity was approximately the same in cycles 14 and 24 applies to all solar outputs that have, in the past, been proposed as a potential cause of terrestrial climate change and includes total solar irradiance, cosmic ray fluxes, spectral UV irradiance, solar wind speed and/or density, heliospheric magnetic field and its ...
A new report shows Texas led the country in new solar capacity in 2023, putting California in the No. 2 spot for the second time in three years.
The first versions of SMARTS were developed by Dr. Gueymard while he was at the Florida Solar Energy Center. [2] [3] [4] The model employed a structure similar to the earlier SPCTRAL2 model, still offered by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (), but with finer spectral resolution, as well as updated extraterrestrial spectrum and transmittance functions.
A severe geomagnetic storm brought spectacular light displays to many parts of the United States on Thursday night, with skies as far south as San Antonio bathed in rich hues of magenta and green.
Solar power nowcasting services are usually related to temporal resolutions of 5 to 15 minutes, with updates as frequent as every minute. The high resolution required for accurate nowcast techniques require high resolution data input including ground imagery, as well as fast data acquisition form irradiance sensors and fast processing speeds.
