Vad tänker du på när du hör ordet solprognos? För vissa är det viktigt i planeringen av semestern, andra kanske för att skydda sig mot farlig UV-strålning. Vad många inte vet är att solprognoser är en viktig komponent i vårt energisamhälle där förnyelsebara energikällor som solkraft och vindkraft ökar kraftigt runt om i världen. Att göra träffsäkra prognoser för inkommande solstrålning har dock viSolar radiation is affected in a variety of different ways through the atmosphere and on its way down to the Earth’s surface. Clouds are the main factor in this attenuation of solar radiation, but aerosols, ozone and other different gases have a significant impact too. Understanding these processes is fundamental to solar forecasting. However, the atmosphere is constantly changing, which makes for
