Abstract

In 21>sup/sup< century Renewable energy sources, especially Solar Energy, are to play a larger role in Hybrid Generation. There exist a number of technological, environmental and political challenges linked to supplementing existing electricity generation capacities with solar energy. Solar power forecasting can avoid many of the balancing issues, if accurate forecasts of solar output are available. Anybody trading in solar energy can negotiate a better price, if they have precise information about the volume they have to sell at any particular time.
