Accuracy of predicted energy yields
is
key for achieving project financing
Sources of uncertainty when predicting potential yields:
• technical risks: performance of components & their proper concert
• operational risks: realistic modeling of actual plant operations
• uncertainty of simulation models
solar radiation,
plant layout,
meteo input
component
• uncertainty of meteo input data
data
operation
strategies
financial yield
performance
simulation
energy yield results
Solar Resource uncertainty:
single highest source of uncertainty! (Ho & Kolb 2010)
Solar irradiation data availability in
India
•
IMD (India Meteorological Department) provided the “Handbook of Solar
Radiation Data for India” (A. Mani, 1980).
•
MNRE in 2008 updated “Solar Radiation Handbook” with the latest data for
the period 1986-2000.
•
Before SRRA ,very limited measured solar radiation data was available for
the country.
•
Other
sources
are
satellite
and
model-derived
NASASSE,METEONORM,DLR-SOLEMI, SEC-NREL .
data
like
Solar Radiation Map of
India
(NREL, 2010)
SRRA Implementation
•
Under Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission(JNNSM-R&D), SRRA Program
was sponsored by MNRE in 2011 and implemented by C-WET, Chennai .
•
An exclusive SRRA unit has been established at C-WET.
•
51 SRRA stations in 10 states and 1 union territory have been established
between May 2011 to October, 2011.
•
Central Receiving Station (CRS) established at C-WET.
•
Data from
CWET.
all SRRA stations are transmitted
through GPRS to the CRS at

Options for actions beyond SolMap as present
form
• Support SRRA phase 2: implementation, QC, analysis.
• Soiling correction of SRRA data.
• CSP benchmarking.
• Short-term solar forecasting for PV&CSP supporting grid operations and
CSP plant operations.
• Various radiation related data products.
• Grid integration of solar energy.
