Irradiation and PV array energy output, cost, and optimal positioning estimation for South Africa

Simulation results of an irradiation and PV array performance software package (SunSim) are pre-sented. South African irradiation data availability is discussed, an irradiation data classification system proposed, and the estimation of diffuse irradiation on tilted surfaces analysed. Estimation of P...
