Description
In this work, we propose different empirical models for the estimation of daily global solar radiation on a horizontal plane in the region of Kara in Togo. The performance of the models is evaluated on the basis of statistical indicators such as: the correlation coefficient (R) and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). It appears that the Angstrom-Prescott linear model is the most efficient for the site. For this model, the values of R and RMSE are 0.9256 and 0.046, respectively. It can therefore be used to estimate the solar potential of the region of Kara.
