Scientists have developed a multi-physics thermal model for panels with a natural convection cooling loop and tested it against experimental data. They have also experimented with varying the coolant ...

The intermittent nature of solar energy poses challenges to grid stability, making accurate ultra-short-term solar irradiance ...

Okovate Sustainable Energy, Inc., has announced the successful acquisition of the assets of Fundusol, a modeling platform born out of Stanford University and Carnegie Mellon.

Global weather models form the foundation of much of the available solar irradiance and power forecasting, and are typically sourced from publicly funded weather agencies, including the European ...

Agrivoltaic project developer Okovate Sustainable Energy has acquired the assets of Fundusol, a modeling platform born out of ...

Researchers use AI to manage the growing complexity of modern power grids. As renewable energy sources such as wind and solar become more widespread, managing the power grid has become increasingly ...

A first-of-its kind AI-powered model attempts to better predict space weather and its impacts. The model — called Surya, for the Sanskrit word for "sun," was put together by NASA and IBM and trained ...

A multidisciplinary team from the California Institute of Technology is a winner of the 2024 Gizmodo Science Fair for testing a satellite that proves it’s possible to collect solar energy in space and ...
