What is the difference between solar irradiation and solar intensity?

Solar irradiance is often confused with solar irradiation due to the similarity in what it measures and the similarity of the words. However, the two serve distinct purposes. Put simply, solar irradiance is the measure of instantaneous solar intensity, while solar irradiation is the measure of solar intensity over time.

How is solar irradiance measured?

The two images use the same color scale. Solar irradiance is the power per unit area (surface power density) received from the Sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range of the measuring instrument. Solar irradiance is measured in watts per square metre (W/m 2) in SI units.

How is solar radiation characterized?

The solar radiation may be characterized by the measured solar irradiance (power per area at a given moment) (or radiation) and by the solar insolation (the energy per area delivered over a specified time period). The solar radiance is an instantaneous power density in units of kW/m 2.

How does solar irradiance affect solar energy?

Solar energy is enabled by the solar irradiance reaching the earth. Here we describe the characteristics of solar irradiance as well as the sources of variation. The different components of the solar irradiance and the instruments for measurement of these components are presented.

What is the difference between solar irradiance & solar radiation?

The units of measurement are key to understanding the difference: So, while irradiance measures the power per area, solar irradiation measures the power per area during a period of time (an hour, for example). The amount of solar irradiance depends on several factors. What influences solar irradiance?

Why is solar irradiance important for PV energy generation?

Conclusions Solar irradiance is of utmost importance for PV energy generation and can be affected in different ways. To a lesser extent, it is the variation of sunlight reaching the top of the atmosphere due to the sun cycle as well as the variation in sun-earth distance.
