In order to grasp the significance of the work accomplished by the author, it is necessary to keep abreast of the present developments in this field. The research work reported in the paper is an attempt to get knowledge to assess the solar energy potential for practical and efficient utilization in India. Our work is centered on estimating realistic values of solar (global and diffuse) radiation on horizontal and tilted surfaces using measured meteorological data and geographical and geometrical parameters for India.

“…Optimal design of solar systems requires exact prediction of the solar energy [1][2][3][4]. To this aim, several empirical methods have been developed to avoid performing costly in-situ solar radiation measurements [5,6]. Some of the well-known methods in this area are auto-regression, Markov chain, or robust optimization techniques [7][8][9].…”

-The paper is aimed at proffering an alternative means to the meteorological measuring stations by generating models for average instant solar radiation as a function of instant average temperature at places where measurement are not available. The data were processed using Microsoft excel software programming and regression analysis to generate a set of models for both morning and afternoon sessions of instant solar radiation of Ogbomoso as a function of temperature. In order to validate these models, statistical indicators like RMSE, MBE and MPE were used. The value of RMSE, MBE and MPE statistical indicators for morning and afternoon set of data were calculated to be 0.001219, -0.0000002, 0.0059% and 0.00033769, -0.00171225, -4.82%, respectively. From the t-test statics, percentage error between the measured and calculated values of instant average temperature, it is revealed that the set of models in this work can adequately be used in place of the data from the measuring stations since there is complementary relationship between the measured and the calculated instant solar radiation of Ogbomoso. And this modelling result could be used in the estimation of instant solar radiation at locations where measurements are not available to design high performance solar radiation related devices.
