New research reveals how Saharan dust impacts solar energy generation in Europe. Dust from North Africa reduces photovoltaic (PV) power output by scattering sunlight,
Here we use state-of-the-art Earth system model simulations to investigate how large photovoltaic solar farms in the Sahara Desert could impact the global cloud cover and
The study focusses on solar, wind, and hydro power overlooks other important sources of renewable energy, such as geothermal, biomass, and tidal energy. These sources
Dr. György Varga and his team of researchers studied more than 46 Saharan dust events that occurred between 2019 and 2023. They looked at how these events affected solar
