Summary

SolarAnywhere® is often associated with utility-scale or distributed PV, but our solar irradiance data powers a lot more than solar plants. A great example: Piotr Lichota at the Warsaw University of Technology is using SolarAnywhere to figure out when to launch solar-assisted Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), and how long they can realistically stay in the air. Solar UAVs are being developed for autonomous environmental monitoring, precision agriculture and search-and-rescue. The success of this technology, however, depends heavily on weather.
