Description

Technical Field

[0002] As the world's attention to renewable energy continues to increase, photovoltaic power generation has been widely used as a clean and environmentally friendly form of energy. In modern centralized photovoltaic power stations, how to accurately predict the optical power output has become a key issue in improving the efficiency and economy of photovoltaic power stations. The power output of photovoltaic power stations is affected by many factors, including environmental conditions such as light intensity, temperature, humidity, wind speed, cloud density, and the status and performance of photovoltaic modules. Therefore, accurate optical power prediction can not only help power stations optimize operation and reduce maintenance costs, but also provide accurate load prediction for power grid dispatching, improving the stability and reliability of the power grid.
