The First Technical Report of the intended research project 'Development of a Measuring Equipment for the Quantification of Solar Irradiation Reductions caused by Restrictions of the Horizon' contains fundamental ideas for a realization of this project. Based on a description of the main objectives of this project and a subsequent critical review of present procedures, used for the determination of shading effects, three technical possibilities to realize the hardware are pointed out. In view of this, main advantages and disadvantages of these are discussed. In order to understand the substantial steps of these procedures, the most important operational principles of some of the components are described in detail. The subsequent comparative assessment, considering the expenditure of maintenance and development, the use of commercial components, the compactness of arrangements as well as the costs, leads to the selection of a suitable measuring equipment. The software development is described in the third chapter of this report. Different kinds of possibilities to generate hourly data of solar irradiation on horizontal surfaces (clear horizon) are discussed, regarding their usefulness within this project. Restrictions of the horizon have an influence on direct and diffuse solar irradiation. The related various effects are presented shortly. Furthermore, difficulties in calculating solar irradiation on arbitrary inclined and orientated surfaces are explained.
