High-quality long-term irradiance measurements are the criteria for judging whether a solar radiation dataset can benefit. However, apart from a handful of observatories in the

The range of observation points in the NSRDB database is limited, and many potential solar power plants do not have good meteorological observation stations near
Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) data files were first created from long-term data files in the NSRDB database for analysis of building performance. At the time,
Robust solar radiation datasets are key to competitive solar project financing. Financiers generally consider solar resources to be stable from year to year compared to
Exceeding Probability Statistics is a statistical measure that describes the probability that a particular value is equal to or exceeds. For example, a 90% exceedance
The variability of solar energy resources affects the technical performance of solar power systems on all time scales. In addition, this variability affects the financial
The solar power generation market has matured in size, with projects (whether individual projects or a combination of smaller projects) reaching a scale that would
