Environmental photodegradation is dependent on the solar irradiance that reaches the Earth's surface, and photodegradation half-lives of contaminants are typically estimated assuming clear sky (i.e., cloudless) conditions. In this work, the effect of cloud cover on solar irradiance was investigated. Data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), which spanned 3 years of observations (10/2017 to 12/202, were used to train two machine learning models to predict irradiance based on three inputs - day of year, time of day,
