Estimation Solar radiation is the most significant part of the optimization of solar power. This may be achieved if the solar radiation is predicted well in advance. Meteorological stations have radiation measuring devices like pyranometer, pyrheliometer, radiometer, solarimeter, etc. however, it may not be available at the location of interest for researchers. Due to this limitation solar radiation estimation models are devised based on location details like Altitude, Latitude, Longitude, and metrological details like Wind Speed, Ambient Temperature, Relative Humidity, Day Temperature, etc. These radiation models provide Global Solar Radiation (GSR) as output. These models are statistically tested based on error calculation like Mean Bias Error, Mean Absolute Error, Root Mean Square Error, etc. This paper is framed to briefly provide the idea behind different solar radiation estimation models with the methodology used. Soft computing-based models are mainly analyzed here. ANN-based Global Solar Irradiance Estimation Model has been developed using geographical parameters like Elevation, Latitude, Longitude, Longitude, and meteorological parameters like Months of a year, Days of a month, Temperature, Atmospheric Pressure, Relative Humidity, and Wind Speed. The data are downloaded from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) for 2014 (latest available). From this paper, the reader will come to know about various techniques used in solar radiation estimation. The developed ANN-based model has better results for training, testing, validation, and all with Regression value of 0.94304, 0.9488, 0.94766, 0.94556 respectively. The MSE is found to be 0.0089147 at epoch 0. The obtained values of R and MSE indicates the suitability of the developed model.
1. Introduction
Optimization of renewable sources of energy is one of the thrust areas for the researchers, now a days. There are many advantages of renewable sources over non-renewable sources like abundancy, non-pollutant, etc. in comparison to other sources of renewable energy like biomass, wind, hydropower, geothermal, solar energy is most preferable due to its profound abundancy over the earth. The sun radiates about 1,20,000 TW of radiation per hour which is more than sufficient to fulfill the energy need of the world for a year [1-2]. Solar energy with huge potential can meet the need of earth’s energy requirements [3]. Solar energy has a great lead as per the application point of view over other renewable sources of energy [4]. The solar radiation is available as extraterrestrial and global solar radiation. The first one is found above the atmosphere while the second one is under the atmosphere. Global solar radiation is measured by the measuring instruments like Pyrheliometer in case of direct beam solar radiation and by Solarimeter, Pyranometer, Radiometer in case of diffused solar radiation [5]. These measuring devices are of very high cost and they are installed at a few meteorological stations. This means, measuring devices may not be available at the locations of interest for the researchers [6]. Due to this limitation, solar radiation is estimated based on the location and meteorological parameters such as latitude, longitude, altitude, sunshine hour, air temperature, wind speed, cloud cover, humidity, days of a month, etc.
As per the nature of the forecasting models, it may be categorized as Mathematical/Classical/Statistical Models, Machine Learning Models, Cloud Motion Models, Numerical Weather Prediction Models, and Hybrid Models. Persistence Models provide a standard forecast in comparison to the realization of other models.
Empirical models mostly depend on the following factors [7]:
- Astronomical elements such as hour angle, solar declination, earth-sun distance, etc.
- Meteorological elements like humidity, air temperature, sunshine duration, precipitation, evaporation, etc.
- Geographical elements like altitude, longitude, latitude, etc.
- Physical elements like water vapor content scattering of dust, scattering of air molecules, etc.
- Geometrical elements such as tilt angle, sun elevation, sun azimuth, etc.
Further, based on types of input meteorological parameters, empirical models may be categorized as Sunshine, Cloud, Temperature, and other meteorological parameter-based models.
This paper is oriented as follows. Section 2 and section 3, provide a brief survey of the classical solar radiation estimation model and development of a new global solar irradiation model. Results have been quoted in section 4 and conclusion of the work has drawn section 5.
2. Summary of Empirical/ Classical/ Statistical Model of Solar Radiation Estimation
In earlier days Solar Radiation estimation was carried out using various mathematical relations [8-9], which were widely tested and evaluated across the globe. Later on, its revised versions like quadratic, cubic, exponential, and logarithmic, were also advised by various researchers [10-13]. A comparative study reveals that some revised models have better results than that of the A-P Model [14-17]. Another author found similar results while evaluating linear, quadratic, cubic, and exponential models in Iran [15]. Insignificant difference between these models were reported after testing and evaluating [17]. After this, several researchers modified A-P Model by incorporating other parameters like atmospheric pressure, precipitation, air temperature, relative humidity, etc. [18-24].
As sunshine models are subjected to availability of sunshine hour [25-26], so to overcome with this, a model was devised based on maximum and minimum temperatures [27]. Later on, this model was also improved by several researchers [28]. By using precipitation, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity data, model developed by [27] and was modified by [29]. Many researchers found that the accuracies of the model of [27] and other models [30] highly varies for various geographical locations and local climate of the location of interest [31].
In addition to the above two categorizations, some authors have used other parameters like precipitation, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity to estimate solar radiation. However, due to the complex radiation process, it is a challenging task nowadays also to develop the perfect empirical model [32]. Several empirical models were developed, evaluated, and reviewed by researchers [33-37].
3. Development of Global Horizontal Solar Radiation Estimation Model based on ANN
In Section 2, maximum types of classical as well as machine learning models are briefed and found that Artificial Neural Network-based estimation models have better performance in comparison to others [38-39]. The development of the ANN-based model is detailed below.
3.1. Geographical and Meteorological data Collection and Processing
The present analysis is carried out for New-Delhi (National Capital of India). The measured geographical parameters such as Latitude, Longitude, Elevation and meteorological parameters such as Months of a year, Days of a month, Temperature, Atmospheric Pressure, Humidity, and Wind Speed are downloaded from National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) for 2014 (latest available). As, data of different downloaded parameters were having different ranges and units, so max-min normalization of data was performed ranging between 0-1 by equation (1);
where is the Normalized value of the variable, is downloaded value of the variable, is Maximum value, is the minimum value, is the new maximum value, and is the new minimum value.
