Table 1 Influencing factors and variables for PV power generation.

From: A novel hybrid model integrating CEEMDAN decomposition, dispersion entropy and LSTM for photovoltaic power forecasting and anomaly detection

Impact factor

An explanation of the meaning of words or phrases

Temperature

Temperature in degrees Celsius (°C) corresponding to the point in time of the observation

Array plane irradiance

The radiant power per unit area irradiated into the plane of a PV array, usually in watts per square meter (W/m²)

Wind speed

Wind speed in meters per second (m/s)

Relative humidity

The ratio of the temperature at which the air is saturated with water vapor content (dew point) to the corresponding temperature at the point in time of the observation, usually expressed as a percentage

Actual power

Actual power output of the PV system at a given point in time, in kilowatts (kW)
