6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic panel radiation data]

What is a solar radiation database?

"A new solar radiation database for estimating PV performance in Europe and Africa". Solar Energy, 86, 1803-1815. These are raster data that can be used in a Geographical Information System (GIS) software. The data represent long-term yearly and monthly averages of selected climatic parameters. Solar radiation data:

What data sets are available for solar radiation?

Three different data sets are available for solar radiation: Data from the CM SAF "SARAH-Edition 2" solar radiation data product. These data was incorporated in PVGIS version 5.2. The time period used to calculate the averages is 2005-2020. Data from the CM SAF operational solar radiation data product.

Where can I find solar radiation data for Asia?

In PVGIS 4 these data were used to provide solar radiation data for Asia. The time period used to calculate the long-term averages is 2005-2016. Data from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB). The time period used to calculate the long-term averages is 2005-2015. Access solar data downloads from PVGIS.

Where can I find solar radiation data?

In all cases, the original data are freely available from the organizations that have produced the data sets. Three different data sets are available for solar radiation: Data from the CM SAF "SARAH-Edition 2" solar radiation data product. These data was incorporated in PVGIS version 5.2.

Is there a solar radiation database for Europe?

We have therefore introduced an additional solar radiation database for Europe, which includes northern latitudes: PVGIS-ERA5 This is an reanalysis product from ECMWF. Coverage is worldwide at hourly time resolution and a spatial resolution of 0.28° lat/lon. More information about the reanalysis-based solar radiation data is available.

What are pvgis solar panels made of?

By default, PVGIS provides solar panels made up of crystalline silicon cells. These solar panels correspond to the majority of rooftop-installed solar panel technology. PVGIS does not differentiate between polycrystalline and monocrystalline cells.
