Abstract

Throughout the history of the human being, it has been tried to understand how the effects of the climate can alter the daily life, and how a prediction can be established that allows to understand how the atmospheric phenomena will behave in a region that is governed by physical laws, which affect the environment, and create climatic changes. Through a weather station, a database can be established, with information from sensors specialized in the measurement of different parameters, which make up a climate study and their representation. In Ecuador and in the world, the use of photovoltaic panels has a very important role in the generation of energy since its use does not contribute to the emission of greenhouse gases and can provide energy to remote places, the energy generated by photovoltaic panels is clean and does not generate damage to the environment, and its maintenance is simple and low cost, which is why this type of energy is growing in several developed countries worldwide.
