Nepal

(Abstract):  Monthly Average Solar Resource for
flat-plate collectors tilted at latitude 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 due south at an angle from horizontal equal
to the latitude of the collector location.

(Abstract):  Documentation of the satellite-based high resolution solar resource assessment for Nepal provided by DLR. The high resolution solar data (10kmx10km) provide country maps of the annual and monthly sums of hourly global horizontal and direct normal irradiance (GHI and DNI) for the year 2000, 2002 and 2003. Additionally, for selected sites hourly values of GHI and DNI are provided.

(Abstract):  Hourly time series of GHI and DNI for the
years 2000, 2002 and 2003 for selected sites in Nepal. The hourly data
are stored in ASCII files for each station. Please read the
documentation file for additional information.
(Purpose):  For the selected sites, the hourly time
series can be used for the simulation of Photovoltaic (PV)-systems or Concentrating Solar Power (CSP)-systems.
