Improved Prediction Approach on Solar Irradiance of Photovoltaic Power Station

Prediction of solar irradiance has great significance to photovoltaic power forecasting and the scheduling plan of power generation. Aim at unsatisfactory prediction accuracy of traditional forecasting methods, this paper presents an approach to predict solar irradiance of photovoltaic power station based on wavelet decomposition and extreme learning machine. With historical irradiance sequence...

Special Section on Space Solar Power Systems

A vision is presented for the generation of enormous (terawatt) power levels using solid-state sources arranged in arrays of devices that are opto-electronically controlled to produce a microwave beam that can be safely directed towards terrestrial receptors. The performance and capabilities of discrete technologies will increase tremendously over the next three or four decades (when SSP system...

A novel design project for space solar power station (SSPS-OMEGA)

The space solar power station (SSPS) capable of providing earth with primary power has been researched for 50 years. The SSPS is a tremendous design involving optics, mechanics, electromagnetism, thermology, control, and other disciplines. This paper presents a novel design project for SSPS named OMEGA. The space segment of the proposed GEO-based SSPS is composed of four main parts, such as sph...
