  • Abstract
    This article presents and validates the latest version of the SUNY satellite model. In the future this new model will be deployed operationally as part of SolarAnywhere. The new version includes an improved treatment of clear sky, the ingestion of now-casting numerical weather predictions, and a more effective treatment of the model´s dynamic range to better represent extreme (clear and overcast) conditions. This new version results in substantial performance improvement across a diversity of climates.
