cells. The insolation values represent the resource available to a flat plate collector, Biomass such as a photovoltaic panel, oriented due south at an angle from horizontal to equal Federal Energy Management to the latitude of the collector location. This is typical practice for PV system Program installation, although other orientations are also used.

Geothermal Several map variations are accessible below. For information on how these maps were Hydrogen developed, access the How the Maps Were Made page.

Solar Wind Types of Maps U.S. Solar Resource Maps Data & Analysis Tools These maps show national solar photovoltaics (PV) resource potential and concentrating solar power (CSP) resource potential for the United States. They are available in JPEG format.

For more information on CSP resources, access the resource maps page on the Concentrating Solar Power site.

PV Solar Radiation (10 km)Static Maps These maps provide monthly average and annual average daily total photovoltaic (PV) solar resource, averaged over surface cells of 0.1 degrees in both latitude and longitude, or about 10 km in size. This data was developed using the State University of New York/Albany satellite radiation model. See How the Maps Were Made for more information.

PV Solar Radiation (Flat Plate, Facing South, Latitude Tilt)Static Maps These maps provide monthly average daily total solar resource information on grid cells of approximately 40 km by 40 km in size. The insolation values represent the resource available to a flat plate collector, such as a photovoltaic panel, oriented due south at an angle from horizontal to equal to the latitude of the collector location.

Direct Normal Solar Radiation (Two-Axis Tracking Concentrator)Static Maps These maps provide monthly average daily total solar resource information on grid cells of approximately 40 km by 40 km in size. The insolation values represent the resource available to concentrating systems that track the sun throughout the day.
