Insolation Map Index
The numbers listed on these maps are the average worst case insolation hours.
Insolation hours provide a way of predicting the output of a solar module at
a specific location. This data has typically been gathered over a number of
years from weather stations located throughout the world. For example, if you
have an SX-60 solar module that produces 3.5A peak power in a location that
has 3 hours of insolation, it can be said that the SX-60 will produce 10.5AH
a day.
A word of caution. This insolation information should be
used only for estimates. Solar systems should not have a final
design based on this information. This map does take into
account small climate changes and may not be 100% accurate
for all locations. We have a vast resource of databases that
have specific cities listed with accurate insolation data.
Please allow us to verify any critical design before purchasing.
