Foreword
A central challenge in assessing renewable energy resources consists in elaborating operational previsions of their temporal and regional fluctuations. Without adequate forecasting methods, the degree of penetration of these energies in the power grid will not meet the expectations triggered by climate change and geopolitical issues. Consequently, the present volume describes recent advances in both deterministic and probabilistic forecasting of wind fields and solar radiation, with focus on complex terrain conditions that are frequently encountered in practice. The first two chapters expose and characterize the geophysical and meteorological data and parameters upon which the methods presented rely: requirements for spatial and temporal resolution, and availability of multichannel remote sensing from space as operational data sources.
