Solar power generation

This dataset consists of meteorological and environmental data collected in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, over multiple years. The variables include solar radiation, temperature (both maximum and minimum in Celsius and Fahrenheit), precipitation, vapor pressure, and snow water equivalent, among others. The data spans from 2010 to the present, providing insights into solar radiation patterns, daily temperature fluctuations, and weather-related factors that can impact solar power generation. Specifically, the dataset contains the following columns:
- Categories:

The dataset provided in this study contains variables related to solar power generation, including solar irradiance, temperature, wind speed, and humidity in Riyadh. The data was collected using NASA satellite imagery and various ground stations over a period of time. This dataset is crucial for improving solar radiation forecasting models, particularly by enhancing the prediction of solar power production in Saudi Arabia under varying climatic conditions.

The dataset is supplementary material for the research article 'Techno-economic assessment of grid-level battery energy storage supporting distributed photovoltaic power' published in IEEE Access in October 2021. The dataset corresponds to the annual timeseries at 1-minute resolution (525,600 steps) of the per-unit profiles used for the electric load and the per-unit power output of 8 PV systems.
- Categories:
This dataset contains (1) the Simulink model of a three-phase photovoltaic power system with passive anti-islanding protections like over/under current (OUC), over/under voltage (OUV), over/under frequency (OUF), rate of change of frequency (ROCOF), and dc-link voltage and (2) the results in the voltage source converter and the point of common coupling of the photovoltaic system during islanding operation mode and detection times of analyzed anti-islanding methods.
