[Method] The models of total solar radiation and scattered radiation were determined, and solar energy resources in pho-tovoltaic power stations were evaluated based on illumination in horizontal plane and cloud data in 123 counties or cities and observed information in Jinan, Fushan and Juxian in 1988-2008. [Result] Solar energy in northern regions in Shandong proved most abundant, which is suitable for photovoltaic power generation; the optimal angle of tilt of photovoltaic array was at 35°, decreasing by 2°-3° compared with local latitude. Total solar radiation received by the slope with optimal angle of tilt exceeded 1 600 kw.h/(m2.a), increasing by 16% compared with horizontal planes. The maximal irradiance concluded by WRF in different regions tended to be volatile in 1 020-1 060 W/m2. [Conclusion] The research provides references for construction of photovoltaic power stations in Shandong Province.展开更多

In the market entry process of an innovative technology such as solar energy, the increased and sustained deployment of this energy technology strongly depends on the economy and reliability of the solar systems installed. The economy and reliability of a system are the consequences of a well-prepared project, resulting from an accurate knowledge of the solar resource available. Therefore, knowing the potential of the solar resource accurately is not only a need but also an imperative for the larger diffusion and use of the solar energy. The existing sources of the information on radiation in MG are quite varied, both at the institutional level and in different types of publications. The publications containing this information are project reports, internal reports of institutions, and several magazines. Thus, the quality of the data varies considerably, the information presents spatial and temporal discontinuity;moreover, the instruments and the measurement units are not standardised. The general objective of this paper is to recover, to qualify, to standardize, and to make available the best information from the current existing solar resource in MG, Brazil, either in the form of isoline charts of solar radiation or a numerical database. In this paper, the procedure to elaborate the maps of daily solar radiation and insolation, along with the monthly and annual averages, is described. We present one map with the localisation of the recording stations in addition to one annual and 12 monthly contour maps. The map of the daily global solar irradiation and the annual average determined in this project show that solar radiation on the state of Minas Gerais ranges from 4.5 to 6.5 kWh/m2. The maximum values occur in the northern region of Minas Gerais, and the minimum values occur in the southeast region, where there are areas of higher altitude (Mantiqueira and Serra do Caparaó) and the rainfall is more intense, with total annual rainfall greater than 1400 mm. The North and Northeast Regions of MG, where the largest annual irradiation of 6.5 kWh/m2 occurs, are characterised by a semiarid climate with annual rainfall between 600 - 800 mm and altitudes between 400 - 600 m. The maritime tropical air mass that acts between Brazil and Africa is the main climatic factor that inhibits cloud formation and, consequently, the rainfall in this region. Finally, the map of annual insolation reveals a consistent correlation between the daily rainfall and the solar radiation annual average.展开更多

In order to meet the later development demand for energy, it is necessary to pay attention to the application of renewable energy, and solar energy is a kind of clean, environmental and renewable energy, so people gradually pay attention to the application of solar energy. Solar energy can be applied in many fields, such as the popular solar oven in the past, but now through solar photovoltaic power generation becomes the application trend of renewable energy in the future. This paper analyzes the application status of solar photovoltaic power generation technology, and describes the future development trend for reference.展开更多

Observation and assessment of solar thermal and photovoltaic resources are the basis and key of their large-scale development and utilization. Using the observational data carried out from Beijing southern suburbs observation station of China M eteorological Administration in summer of 2009,preliminary solar thermal and photovoltaic resources characteristics for different w eather conditions,different angle and different directions are analyzed. The results show that:(1) In sunny,cloudy or rainy w eather conditions,both of solar thermal and photovoltaic sensors daily irradiance have consistent change in trend. Solar thermal irradiance is larger than photovoltaic. Under sunny conditions,solar thermal global radiation has about 2.7%higher than the photovoltaic global radiation. Under cloudy w eather conditions,solar thermal global radiation has about 3. 9%higher than the photovoltaic. Under rainy w eather conditions,solar thermal global radiation has about 20% higher than the photovoltaic.(2) For different inclined plane daily global radiation,southern latitude-15 °incline is the maximum and southern vertical surface is the minimum. The order from large to small is southern latitude-15 ° incline,southern latitude incline,southern latitude+15 °incline,horizontal surface and southern vertical surface. Southern latitude-15 °incline global radiation has about 41% higher than the southern vertical surface.(3) For different orientation vertical surface daily global radiation,southern vertical surface is the maximum and w estern vertical surface is the minimum,w hich eastern vertical surface is in the middle. Southern vertical surface global radiation has about 20% higher than the w estern vertical surface.展开更多
