Abstract
The importance of green energy in the current times cannot be understated. The ill effects of traditional forms of energy generation, make solar energy one of the most environmentally friendly alternatives. SAI MITHRA – a roof top multi building, multi-capacity solar energy generation system, executed by Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust at Prasanthinilayam in South India is a prime example for promotion of green energy. Using a regression model, this study attempts to understand the impact of weather variables on solar energy production across different production capacities using high frequency daily data. In order to provide predictive insights, the impact of weather variables with t-1 and t-2 days lags on solar energy generation have also been studied. The study identifies the three important weather variables that have an impact on solar energy production – atmospheric pressure, relative humidity and dew point temperature. The insights from the paper are relevant for multi-capacity solar energy systems for improving operational efficiencies and promoting green energy ecosystems.
