Dataset description

The map shows the average annual values for global radiation in kWh/m². The higher the global radiation at the site, the better it is — basically — for the use of solar thermal or photovoltaic. However, other factors play a role, such as shading, angle of inclination of the selected area, statics e.g. when using systems on roof surfaces and much more. The global radiation for the entire year is expressed as the sum of all monthly values. The data comes from the radiation and climate measurement network of the German Weather Service from 1981 to 2010.
