Probability density and Weibull distribution functions
It is essential to obtain the probability density function (pdf) of the actual power output of wind or solar photovoltaic energy systems, especially for planning and analysing a power system incorporating such renewable sources of energy. Probability density function is a statistical expression that defines a probability distribution for a continuous random variable as opposed to a discrete random variable.
