How solar radiation is measured: techniques and instruments

Solar energy is the result of the nuclear fusion process that takes place in the sun. This energy is the engine that drives our environment, with the solar energy that reaches the Earth''s surface being 10,000 times greater than the energy currently consumed by all of humanity.. Radiation is the transfer of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

Fundamentals of Solar Energy

Electromagnetic radiation emitted by the nearest star reaches the earth as solar radiation. Sunlight consists of visible and near visible regions. The Visible region is the region where the wavelength is between 0.39 and 0.74 μm. The infrared region has a wavelength smaller than 0.39 μm and the ultra-violet region''s wavelength is greater than 0.74 μm.
