Article Synopsis
- * Solar photovoltaic systems are more affordable than diesel generators for at least 36% of unelectrified populations in East Asia, South Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa, according to new geo-referenced affordability estimates.
- * The study highlights significant affordability variations at the subnational level, suggesting that electrification investments should be guided by detailed local data for better outcomes.
Extensive validation of CM SAF surface radiation products over Europe.
Remote Sens Environ
September 2017
This work presents a validation of three satellite-based radiation products over an extensive network of 313 pyranometers across Europe, from 2005 to 2015. The products used have been developed by the Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring (CM SAF) and are one geostationary climate dataset (SARAH-JRC), one polar-orbiting climate dataset (CLARA-A2) and one geostationary operational product. Further, the ERA-Interim reanalysis is also included in the comparison.
