The Central Electricity Authority released comprehensive new guidelines for the installation and operation of automatic weather stations at solar and wind power plants, seeking to enhance forecasting accuracy, grid reliability and the overall efficiency of renewable energy generation.
The first batch of these next-generation stations is set to be installed in the national capital from February. The initiative is part of the government's ambitious Mission Mausam, a ₹2,000 crore programme to upgrade India's weather observation and forecasting capabilities.
This study presents a novel, low-cost smart solar-powered weather station that utilizes internet of things technology and is tailored to the needs of agriculture. The weather station records a range of agricultural data, including air temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed and direction, solar radiation, and precipitation.
