Abstract

The accuracy analysis of energy performance prediction of autonomous photovoltaic units using various climate databases (NASA POWER, SARAH-E, CLARA-A, ERA5, Meteonorm, etc.) for some geographic points in Russia was performed by comparing with calculations using data of World Radiation Data Center. It is shown that the considered databases provide a spread of predictions of the required power of solar battery at the level of 10-20% only when solar fraction is less than 70%. For larger solar fraction, the prediction error of the required power of solar battery can reach hundreds of percent.
