AI model sharpens solar forecasts to support satellite network stability
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Oct 16, 2025 Accurate solar radiation forecasting is crucial for the stability of photovoltaic power systems, yet current models often blur as prediction time increases. Addressing this challenge, researchers led by Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology have unveiled an AI-based solution called GAN-Solar, designed to generate sharper, more reliable forecasts for solar energy management. The model harnesses the principle of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), which pit two neural networks ... read more |
