AI Model Pinpoints China's Most Promising Regions for Dual-Sided Solar Panels
• Chinese scientists developed an AI model to identify optimal locations for dual-sided solar panels • Dual-sided panels can generate more power but placement is crucial to maximize solar output • The AI model uses satellite data to predict direct and diffuse solar radiation levels across China • Results show the eastern Tibetan Plateau has high potential thanks to thin air and cloud coverage • Data could inform solar panel installation planning and research into renewable energy potential
