Brittany Farrell, Senior Researcher at Clean Power Research, recently published an article in AESP’s Energy Intel quarterly magazine (page 61). The article illustrates how utilities can use existing energy-usage data and innovative modeling to audit the energy...
Soiling and snow on PV systems can lead to significant annual energy losses, reaching up to 50%1 and 40%2 in certain regions. Our study investigates common models for estimating soiling and snow-related energy impacts. By analyzing these soiling and snow loss models at a 1 km spatial resolution, incorporating typical PV system parameters and leveraging […]
