🌍 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 - 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗨𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵! 🌞 We’re excited to announce an update to the 𝗜𝗘𝗔 𝗣𝗩𝗣𝗦 𝗧𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝟭𝟲 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸 of satellite or numerical weather prediction model-derived solar radiation data—and we’re looking for participants to collaborate with us! If you provide modelled radiation data, this is your chance to contribute to a critical global initiative. Don’t miss out to demonstrate your dataset’s performance in the most comprehensive and impactful benchmark conducted so far. 🔍 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸? - Covering the period 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟴 𝘁𝗼 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯. - Incorporating 𝗚𝗧𝗜 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 where available. - Comparing test data against more than 𝟮𝟬𝟬 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗱𝗲. We’re building on the foundation of the original benchmark, "𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗜𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 - 𝗜𝗘𝗔-𝗣𝗩𝗣𝗦", looking at GHI and DNI and pushing the boundaries of solar data accuracy and validation. Read the full benchmark: https://lnkd.in/dVh--FYU 💡 Interested in participating or learning more? Any satellite-based, reanalysis or other solar radiation model with global or regional coverage offering at least GHI, DNI and DHI is welcome to participate in the benchmark.   We’d also be glad to include further ground measurement locations as reference stations. We’d love to hear from you! Drop us a message to get involved or ask any questions. Let’s drive forward the future of solar energy.

💡 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 – 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗩 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻! 🌞 The #SOLREV2 research project is developing a new benchmark for solar irradiance data sets. The benchmark evaluates the performance of satellite and model data sets at reference stations worldwide and will include global tilted irradiance. The results will enable PV developers to make an informed decision for their project. The benchmark is part of the IEA PVPS - Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme Task 16 work plan. The aim is to reduce the barriers and costs of grid integration of PV. It also aims to reduce planning and investment costs for PV by improving the quality of the irradiance forecasts and solar resource assessments. Our colleague Anne Forstinger is part of the IEA PVPS Task 16 group of various international experts and she is leading the new benchmark activity. At last week's meeting at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (#NREL) Anne discussed the solar radiation benchmark amongst other topics and visited the #NREL Solar Radiation Research Laboratory. The picture shows different albedo measurement set-ups, tilted measurements with various instruments, and the skyline of Denver in the distance. #CSPServices #CSPS #Meteorology #solarirradiance

💡 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆! We're excited to announce that Kathu Solar Park is taking a proactive step to safeguard its receivers by implementing our #HyMATE system. 🔧 #HyMATE effectively removes hydrogen from the Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF), which can otherwise damage the receivers and cause plant performance to drop by more than 20%. In addition to drastic loss of revenue, this kind of damage often leads to costly receiver repairs or replacements, driving up maintenance costs and disrupting operations. #HyMATE keeps hydrogen levels low, protecting receivers and eliminating costly countermeasures. It's efficient, cost-effective, and reliable - because smart protection ensures long-term success! 🌞 Learn more about how #HyMATE can transform your plant’s performance: https://lnkd.in/dHmdj_JW Kathu Solar Park is a 100MW parabolic trough plant with molten salt storage technology and is located in the town of Kathu, 600 km South-West of South Africa’s capital, Pretoria. The thermal energy storage allows the plant to produce electricity even after the sun goes down.
