Abstract:Modeling the amount of solar energy received by a photovoltaic panel is an essential part of green IT research. The specific motivation of this work is the management of the energy consumption of large datacenters. We propose a new stochastic model for the solar irradiance that features minute-scale variations and is therefore suitable for short-term control of performances. Departing from previous models, we use a weather-oriented classification of days obtained from past observations to parameterize the sola… Show more
