joint online cams & cameo radiation service workshop on 7 october 2025
We are excited to announce that we are organising an online workshop dedicated to recent and future evolutions of the CAMS radiation and soiling products for solar energy users.
This workshop is the second of three CAMEO workshops on the uncertainty of air quality policy products and solar radiation.
The joint CAMS and CAMEO radiation service workshop, organised by HYGEOS and DLR is dedicated to the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) products with solar energy applications.
Besides solar radiation, as provided by CAMS routinely, the Horizon Europe CAMEO project is working on simulated dust deposition and its relationship with solar panels soiling losses.

We invite you to join us to discuss these topics, whether you are part of the solar energy community or interested in using CAMS radiation and deposition products.
The online workshop will take place on the 7th of October 2025.
Moderator: Samuel Remy (HYGEOS)

We look forward to your participation and contributions!
The CAMEO project has the objective of enhancing the quality and efficiency of the CAMS service and help CAMS to better respond to policy needs such as air pollutant and greenhouse gases monitoring. To this end, CAMEO is helping to prepare CAMS for the uptake of upcoming satellite data, advance the data assimilation and inversion capacity of the global and regional CAMS production systems and develop methods to provide novel uncertainty estimates for CAMS products.
