Abstract:
The present invention relates to a prediction system for short-term solar irradiance and the method for operating the same. A total sky imager is adopted for acquiring sky images. After imaging, the images are operated for calculating the shading value of sunlight according to the sky images. Then, according to the shading values of sunlight for different times, the trend value for power generation can be calculated. According to the trend value of power generation, whether to start other power sources via power deployment in the near future can be determined and thus maintaining the stability of the overall power grid.
