(Abstract):  Raster GIS ASCII data files of wind speed and wind power density at 10 and 50 m heights. Global data of offshore wind resource as generated by NASA’s QuikScat SeaWinds scatterometer.

(Purpose):  To provide information on the wind resource
potential of offshore areas.

(Abstract):  Data of high resolution (10kmx10km) Global
Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) for Nepal for the years 2000, 2002 and 2003.
The data are available for monthly and annual sums stored in a
ESRI-Shapefile. Please read the country report for additional
information.

(Purpose):  The data are helpful for the assessment of
the solar potential of the country and can give project developer a first
impression of the solar resource of the country.

(Abstract):  Sunshine duration recorders are widely used to estimate global radiation from sunshine duration data using Angstrom type correlations. The number of pyranometer stations that measure global radiation is inadequate in Bangladesh. 31 stations of Bangladesh Meteorological department records both sunshine duration and cloud cover data. A study of the data shows that 6 of the stations do not have satisfactory data for sunshine duration, while cloud cover data for all stations appear to be reasonably good.

(Abstract):  Data of high resolution (10kmx10km) Global
Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) for Sri Lanka for the years 2000, 2002 and
2003. The data are available for monthly and annual sums stored in a
ESRI-Shapefile. Please read the country report for additional
information.
(Purpose):  The data are helpful for the assessment of
the solar potential of the country and can give project developer a first
impression of the solar resource of the country.

(Abstract):  Monthly Average Solar Resource for
horizontal flat-plate collectors, for Sri Lanka
(Purpose):  Provide information on the solar resource
potential for the data domain. The insolation values represent the
average solar energy available to a flat plate collector, such as a
photovoltaic panel, oriented horizontally.

(Abstract):  Monthly average solar resource for
horizontal flat-plate collectors for Nepal.

(Purpose):  Provide information on the solar resource
potential for the data domain. The insolation values represent the
average solar energy available to a flat plate collector, such as a
photovoltaic panel, oriented horizontally.

(Abstract):  Monthly average solar resource for
horizontal flat-plate collectors for Kenya.

(Purpose):  Provide information on the solar resource
potential for the data domain. The insolation values represent the
average solar energy available to a flat plate collector, such as a
photovoltaic panel, oriented horizontally.

(Abstract):  Data of high resolution (10kmx10km) Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) for Kenya for the years 2000, 2001 and 2002. The data are available for monthly and annual sums stored in a ESRI-Shapefile. Please read the documentation file for additional
information.

(Purpose):  The data are helpful for the assessment of the solar potential of the country and can give project developer a first impression of the solar resource of the country.
