Solar Over-Irradiance Events: Preliminary Results from a Global Study

Abstract:

This paper presents the methodology and preliminary results from a global study on solar over-irradiance events, which are more frequent than previously believed and can negatively impact utility-scale PV operations. Data from five test sites in Florianópolis and Brotas de Macaúbas in Brazil, Bernburg in Germany, Albuquerque, in the USA and Loughborough, in the United Kingdom are presented and analyzed.
