Preface

This user's manual describes typical meteorological year (TMY) data sets derived from the 1991-

2005 National Solar Radiation Data Base (NSRDB) update. These data sets provide greater

geographical coverage than previous TMY sets with 1020 locations in the United States and its

territories.

To distinguish between the old and new data sets, the new TMY data sets are referred to as

TMY3. The TMY, TMY2, and TMY3 data sets cannot be used interchangeably because of

differences in time (solar versus local), formats, elements, and units. Unless they are revised,

computer programs designed for previous TMY data will not work with TMY3 data. The

National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) provides a software utility that allows

reformatting of the TMY3 data to the TMY2 format.

The TMY data sets hold hourly values of solar radiation and meteorological elements for a 1-

year period. Their intended use is for computer simulations of solar energy conversion systems

and building systems to facilitate performance comparisons of different system types,

configurations, and locations in the United States and its territories. Because they represent

typical rather than extreme conditions, they are not suited for designing systems to meet the

worst-case conditions occurring at a location.

The TMY3 data sets and this manual were produced by NREL's Electric and Systems Center

under the Solar Resource Characterization Project, which is funded and monitored by the U.S.

Department of Energy's Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Office.

1 Description of the TMY3 Data Set

This manual describes how to obtain and interpret the data in the Typical Meteorological Year,

version 3 (TMY3) data sets. These data sets are an update to, and expansion of, the TMY2 data

released by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in 1994.

1.1 Introduction

A typical meteorological year (TMY) data set provides designers and other users with a

reasonably sized annual data set that holds hourly meteorological values that typify conditions at

a specific location over a longer period of time, such as 30 years. TMY data sets are widely used

by building designers and others for modeling renewable energy conversion systems. Although

not designed to provide meteorological extremes, TMY data have natural diurnal and seasonal

variations and represent a year of typical climatic conditions for a location. The TMY should not

be used to predict weather for a particular period of time, nor is it an appropriate basis for

evaluating real-time energy production or efficiencies for building design applications or solar

conversion systems.

Important note: Some of the meteorological data in this data set have been filled. The data-filling

process was designed to provide serially complete records as input for modeling the solar

radiation fields. Filled meteorological data fields (which are flagged in the data file) may also be

useful for certain renewable energy applications. However, the filled data are not suitable for

climatological studies.

The TMY data set is composed of 12 typical meteorological months (January through

December) that are concatenated essentially without modification to form a single year with a

serially complete data record for primary measurements. These monthly data sets contain actual

time-series meteorological measurements and modeled solar values, although some hourly

records may contain filled or interpolated data for periods when original observations are

missing from the data archive.

1.2 Acquiring TMY3 Data

The TMY3 data are available for download via the World Wide Web. Data may be accessed at

http://rredc.nrel.gov/solar/old_data/nsrdb/1991-2005/tmy3

1.3 Source Data for the TMY3 Data Set

The first TMY data set for the United States was produced by Sandia National Laboratories in

1978 for 248 locations using long-term weather and solar data from the 1952–1975

SOLMET/ERSATZ database (Hall et al. 1978). NREL updated the TMY data in 1994 using data

from the 30-year 1961–1990 National Solar Radiation Data Base (NSRDB) (Marion, et al.

1995). In 2007, NREL released a 15-year updated NSRDB for 1991–2005 (Wilcox et al. 2007a).

The TMY3 data described here were produced using input data for 1976-2005 from the 1961-

1990 NSRDB, Version 1.1 and the 1991-2005 NSRDB update.

Because the 1961-1990 NSRDB has 239 sites and the 1991-2005 NSRDB update has more than

1,400 sites, production of the TMY3 data was designed to maximize both the number of stations

and the number of years from which to characterize the typical conditions. At sites where data

are available for 30 years, the base time period for the TMY algorithm spans 1976-2005. For the

remaining sites, the base time period spans 1991-2005. These two categories of sites are

documented in Appendix A.

In the creation of a TMY, selecting from a larger database generally affords smaller differences

between selected data months and long-term monthly characteristics. Conversely, the smaller the

pool of years from which to determine climate characteristics, the less likely the selection

represents the climate (ASHRAE 2004). In the same context, the eruptions of El Chichón in

1982 and Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 had significant effects on solar radiation for the United States and

further reduced the pool of data for determining the typical climate. Volcanic eruptions, while

often significantly diminishing solar energy at the earth’s surface, are rare, unpredictable, and

variable in intensity. Designers may want to know the potential effects of volcanic eruptions to

determine worst-case scenarios, but such perturbations do not contribute to long-term climate

characterization.

Except for a few changes to the weighting criteria, which account for the relative importance of

the solar radiation and meteorological elements, the TMY2 and TMY3 data sets were created

using procedures similar to those developed by Sandia National Laboratories (Hall et al. 1978) to

create the original TMYs from the 1952-1975 SOLMET/ERSATZ data (see Section 2.1). Minor

changes to the algorithm were made between the TMY2 and TMY3 production runs (see Section

2.3). A small change to the persistence criteria better accommodates selecting a TMY month for

periods or records with fewer years. Also, computer code was removed that prioritized the

selection of months with measured solar data because no measured data were used in the 1991-

2005 NSRDB update. The effects of these changes between the TMY2 and TMY3 algorithm

were evaluated as part of the TMY3 production process (see Section 2.8). In the context of

producing data sets with similar characteristics, these effects were small (Wilcox, et al. 2008).

The Sandia method is an empirical approach that selects individual months from different years

occurring in the period of record. For example, in the case of the NSRDB that contains 30 years

of data, all 30 Januarys are examined, and the one judged most typical by the TMY algorithm is

selected to be included in the TMY. The other months of the year are treated in a like manner,

and then the 12 selected typical months are concatenated to form a complete year.

The 12 selected typical months for each station were chosen using statistics determined by

considering five elements: global horizontal radiation, direct normal radiation, dry bulb

temperature, dew point temperature, and wind speed. These elements are considered the most

important for simulating solar energy conversion systems and building systems.

Because the TMY algorithm assigns priority to the solar radiation elements, the selected months

may or may not be typical for other elements. Cloud cover, which correlates well with solar

radiation, is probably reasonably typical. Other elements are not related to the elements used for

selection; consequently, their values may not be typical. Additionally, even though wind speed

was used in the selection of the typical months, its relatively low weighting with respect to the

other elements prevents it from being sufficiently typical for simulating wind energy conversion

systems.

1.4 TMY3 Data Format

The format for the TMY3 data is radically different from the TMY and TMY2 data.. The older

TMY data sets used columnar or positional formats, presumably as a method of optimizing data

storage space. Such formats are difficult to read, and it is difficult to import specific fields into

many software packages.

The comma separated value (CSV) format is ubiquitous, and many existing programs and

applications provide built-in functions to read or parse it. For that reason, the TMY3 data set is

distributed in the CSV format. For compatibility with existing software, NREL has produced an

application to convert from TMY3 to TMY2 format.

Despite the format differences, the fields in the TMY3 are very similar to those in the TMY2

data set. Fundamental differences are measurement units, which are SI or equivalent in the

TMY3, the addition of three new fields for surface albedo and liquid precipitation, and the

removal of the fields for present weather, snow-depth, and days since last snowfall that were

present in the TMY2. These fields were removed because of incompatible changes in the nature

of the source data or because the source data were not available. The TMY3 data files are named

according to the USAF site identifier as 999999TY.CSV, where 999999 represents the six digit

USAF station identifier (see Appendix A). The TMY3 data format has two file header lines and

8,760 lines of data, each with 68 data fields. The format is documented in Tables 1-1 to 1-3.

1.5 TMY3 Site Selection

While planning the TMY3 update project, we considered two possible scenarios for populating

the data set:

• Create a TMY based on the 30 most recent years of data (1976–2005) for only the 239 sites

common to both the old NSRDB and the NSRDB update

• Create a TMY based on the 15 most recent years of data (1991–2005) for approximately 950

sites from the NSRDB update.

To optimize both temporal and spatial considerations, the TMY3 combines these scenarios so

that the 30-year data were used at sites where they were available and the 15-year data were used

for the remaining sites. The TMY3 sites are listed in Appendix A. The sites in the 1991-2005

NSRDB were chosen based on data availability rather than geographic location (all sites meeting

minimum data criteria were included). For this reason, in the both the NSRDB update and the

TMY3, sites may occur in close proximity, for example in major metropolitan areas.

The period of record of the source data set has an effect on the ability of the TMY algorithm to

select a typical year (ASHRAE 2004). Because of differences in the source period of record for

sites, this information has been documented in Appendix A. See Section 2.8 for a discussion of

the effect of available data on the TMY statistics. Note that for the 30-year period, the pool is

reduced to 24 years at best because of the removal of candidate years due to volcanic eruptions

(see Section 2.4). For the 15-year period, the pool is reduced to 12 years at best for the same

reason. Although some studies have shown than as few as five years may suffice for capturing

much of the statistical character of a climate (Vignola 1993), we implemented a more

conservative constraint on the size of the source data pool: No stations with less than a ten-year

data pool were included in the TMY3 data set.

The NSRDB update subdivided stations by class: Class I sites are those with the lowest

uncertainty data, Class II sites have higher uncertainty data, and Class III sites have an

incomplete period of record. When creating TMY data sets, we did not consider the class of the

site or the uncertainty of the source data. Further, although Class III sites have gaps in the data,

the TMY algorithm was able to produce a typical year for many Class III sites using months of

data without gaps. To aid users in analyzing the quality of the data, we have included the

station’s quality classification from the NSRDB update in Appendix A . The NSRDB

classification subdivided stations according to the following algorithm:

• If any data were missing from the key fields (solar, temperature, humidity, station

pressure, wind speed, aerosols, and precipitable water), the station received a Class III

designation. The algorithm distinguishes between Class I and Class II stations by

examining the uncertainty for each hourly modeled value in the global field. If less than

25% of the data for the 15-year period of record exceeds an uncertainty of 11%, the

station received a Class I designation. Otherwise, it received a Class II designation.

Although the 11% threshold between high and low uncertainty may seem arbitrary, based

on the uncertainty calculations in the NSRDB update, this value easily discriminates

between the data modeled with good human-observed or satellite-derived cloud cover

and the filled or statistically derived cloud cover.

Although the TMY data set likely does not have the same distribution of quality flags for a

station as the entire period of record (it could be better or worse), the NSRDB classification

scheme is valid for estimating the quality of a station’s TMY. This follows because the NSRDB

classification is relevant to the quality of the long-term statistics used to choose the data that

ultimately represent the site’s climate in the TMY. Although the Class III designation focused on

data completeness rather than data quality, the data from most Class III stations were similar in

quality to those of Class II stations and should be considered comparable when considering data

quality in the TMY3 data set.

The geographical coordinates listed in Appendix A may not exactly correspond with the

coordinates of the meteorological station. This is because if a site in the NSRDB update held

measured data from a nearby solar measurement site, the NSRDB site took on the coordinates of

the solar measurement station. See the NSRDB Users’ Manual for additional information

(Wilcox 2007b). (Measured solar data from the 1991-2005 NSRDB Update were not used in the

TMY3 production in order to provide a more consistent data set.)

2 Procedures for Developing TMY3

The TMY2 andTMY3 data were created based on the procedures developed by Sandia National

Laboratories (Hall et al. 1978) to create the original TMYs from the 1952-1975

SOLMET/ERSATZ data. Modifications to the Sandia method were made to better optimize the

weighting of the indices, to provide preferential selection for months with measured solar

radiation data (in the TMY2 data set), and to account for missing data. This section begins by

summarizing the Sandia method, and then it discusses departures from the Sandia method that

were used to create the TMY3 data.

2.1 Sandia Method

The Sandia method is an empirical approach that selects individual months from different years

of the period of record. For example, in the case of the NSRDB that contains 30 years of data, all

30 Januarys are examined, and the one judged most typical is selected to be included in the

TMY. The other months of the year are treated in a like manner, and then the 12 selected typical

months are concatenated to form a complete year. Because adjacent months in the TMY may be

selected from different years, discontinuities at the month interfaces are smoothed for 6 hours on

each side.

The Sandia method selects a typical month based on nine daily indices consisting of the

maximum, minimum, and mean dry bulb and dew point temperatures; the maximum and mean

wind velocity; and the total global horizontal solar radiation. Final selection of a month includes

consideration of the monthly mean and median and the persistence of weather patterns. The

process may be considered a series of steps.

Step 1 - For each month of the calendar year, five candidate months with cumulative distribution

functions (CDFs) for the daily indices that are closest to the long-term (30 years for the NSRDB)

CDFs are selected. The CDF gives the proportion of values that are less than or equal to a

specified value of an index.

Candidate monthly CDFs are compared to the long-term CDFs by using the following

Finkelstein- Schafer (FS) statistics (Finkelstein and Schafer 1971) for each index.

∑

)

(

where

= absolute difference between the long-term CDF and the candidate month CDF at x

n = the number of daily readings in a month.

Four CDFs for global horizontal solar radiation for the month of June are shown in Figure 2-1.

Using the FS statistic and comparing to the long-term, the CDF for June of 1981 compared the

best and the CDF for June of 1989 compared the worst. Even though it was not the best month

with respect to the long-term CDF, June of 1962 was selected for the TMY2. This was a

consequence of additional selection steps described in the following paragraphs.

Figure 2-1. Cumulative distribution functions for June global horizontal solar radiation for

Boulder, Colorado (example from TMY2 processing).

Because some of the indices are judged more important than others, a weighted sum (WS) of the

FS statistics is used to select the five candidate months that have the lowest weighted sums.

WS = Σw

where

= weighting for index

= FS statistic for index.

Step 2 - The five candidate months are ranked with respect to closeness of the month to the long-

term mean and median.

Step 3 - The persistence of mean dry bulb temperature and daily global horizontal radiation are

evaluated by determining the frequency and length of runs of consecutive days with values above

and below fixed long-term percentiles. For mean daily dry bulb temperature, runs above the 67th

percentile (consecutive warm days) and below the 33rd percentile (consecutive cool days) were

determined. For global horizontal radiation, the runs below the 33rd percentile (consecutive low

radiation days) were determined.

The persistence criteria excludes the month with the longest run, the month with the most runs,

and the month with zero runs. The persistence data are used to select from the five candidate

months the month to be used in the TMY. The highest-ranked candidate month from Step 2 that

meets the persistence criteria is used in the TMY.

Step 4 - The 12 selected months were concatenated to make a complete year and discontinuities

at the month interfaces were smoothed for 6 hours each side using curve fitting techniques.

2.2 Weighting and Index Modifications for TMY2 and TMY3

The weighting for each index plays a role in the selection of the typical months. Ideally, one

would select a month that had FS statistics for each index that were better than all the other

months. In practice, this is unlikely because the months might be typical with respect to some of

the indices, but not others. By weighting the FS statistics, the relative importance and sensitivity

of the indices may be taken into account. The Sandia weighting values and the weighting values

used for the NSRDB TMY2 and TMY3 data sets are compared in Table 2-1.

Table 2-1. Weighting values for FS statistics

Index

Sandia Method NSRDB TMY

Max Dry Bulb Temp 1/24 1/20

Min Dry Bulb Temp 1/24 1/20

Mean Dry Bulb Temp 2/24 2/20

Max Dew Point Temp 1/24 1/20

Min Dew Point Temp 1/24 1/20

Mean Dew Point Temp 2/24 2/20

Max Wind Velocity 2/24 1/20

Mean Wind Velocity 2/24 1/20

Global Radiation 12/24 5/20

Direct Radiation Not Used 5/20

For the TMY2 and TMY3 data, an index for direct normal radiation was added. This improves

the agreement between annual direct normal radiation for the TMY and the 30-year annual

average by about a factor of 2 (based on 20 geographically representative NSRDB stations).

When only global horizontal radiation is used for the solar index, the TMY annual direct

radiation values for the 20 stations were within 4% (95% confidence level) of the 30-year annual

average. Using both global horizontal and direct radiation indices reduced the differences to 2%,

with no adverse effect on global horizontal radiation comparisons.

We changed the weightings for dry bulb and dew point temperatures slightly to give more

emphasis to dry bulb and dew point temperatures and less to wind velocity, which is of less

importance for solar energy conversion systems and buildings. The TMY weightings are not

appropriate for creating a typical wind data set for use with wind energy conversion systems, and

these data sets are not intended for wind energy applications.

The relative weights between solar and the other elements were not found to be particularly

sensitive. As an indicator, annual heating and cooling degree days (base 18.3°C) were compared

for the TMY2 data and the 30-year period for the 20 stations. With the selected solar weighting

of 50% (global and direct), annual heating degree days for the TMY2 data were within 5% (95%

confidence level) of the 30-year annual average. As an extreme, reducing the solar weighting to

zero only reduced the differences to within 2.5%. Differences between the TMY2 annual

averages and the 30-year averages for cooling degree days were within 9%, for both 0% and

50% solar weightings.

As a consequence of adding the index for direct normal radiation, the persistence check in Step 3

was modified to determine the frequency and run length below the 33rd percentile (consecutive

low radiation days) for daily values of direct normal radiation. This information, along with that

for the other persistence indices, was then used to select the month satisfying the persistence

criteria.

2.3 Changes from TMY2 to TMY3

A few changes from the TMY2 procedures were required to accommodate the use of 1991-2005

NSRDB data in TMY3 data derived from only a 15-year period. For TMY2 data, months with

measured solar radiation data were given preferential ranking for selection as a typical month.

TMY3 procedures did not include this criterion because only modeled solar radiation data were

included in the TMY3 data in order to provide more consistent solar radiation values.

For the TMY3 data, using only 15 years instead of 30 years to select a candidate month required

that the persistence checks be relaxed to ensure that a candidate month would be selected. For

the TMY2 data, a candidate month is excluded from further consideration if it is the month with

the most runs. For TMY3, a candidate month is only excluded if it has more runs than every

other candidate month. Consequently, if two candidate months tie for the most runs, neither is

eliminated by the TMY3 procedure, whereas the TMY2 procedure would eliminate both

candidate months. As an additional step, if the TMY3 persistence procedure eliminated all

candidate months, persistence was ignored for TMY3 and a month was selected from the

candidate months that was closest to the long term mean and median. This ensured the selection

of a typical month for TMY3 using 15-year or shorter data sets. No TMY for a site was produced

if the pool of data was less than 10 years.

2.4 El Chichón and Mount Pinatubo Years

The volcanic eruptions of El Chichón in Mexico in March 1982 and Mount Pinatubo in the

Philippines in June 1991 injected large amounts of aerosols into the stratosphere. The aerosols

spread northward and circulated around the earth. This phenomenon noticeably decreased the

amount of solar radiation reaching the United States during May 1982 until December 1984 due

to El Chichón and from June 1991 to December 1994 due to Pinatubo, after which the effects of

the aerosols diminished (Stoffel, 1993). Consequently, these months were not used in any of the

TMY procedures because they were considered atypical.

2.5 Leap Years

TMY2 and TMY3 files do not include data for February 29. Consequently, data for February 29

were not used in leap year Februarys to determine their candidate month CDFs. However, to

maximize the use of available data, data for February 29 were included for determining the long-

term CDFs.

2.6 Month Interface Smoothing

We used linear curve-fitting techniques to remove discontinuities created by concatenating

months from different years to form the TMY2 and TMY3 data sets. These techniques were

applied for 6 hours on each side of the month interfaces for dry bulb temperature, dew point

temperature, wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric pressure, and precipitable water. Relative

humidity for 6 hours on each side of the month interfaces was calculated using psychometric

relationships (ASHRAE 1993) and curve-fitted values of dry bulb temperature and dew point

temperature.

2.7 Allowance for Missing Data

The NSRDB has no missing solar radiation data for the sites used for TMY production, but

meteorological data are missing for some stations and months for the 1961-1990 period.

Consequently, when creating the TMY2 data, procedures were adopted to account for missing

meteorological data. These procedures are documented in the TMY2 data manual (Marion, et al.

1995). Similar data procedures were developed for filling the 1991-2005 NSRDB data. For the

TMY3 data, these procedures (Wilcox, 2007b) were used to fill missing data for the 1976-1990

period. Hence, in the TMY3 update, there was no need for additional data filling as part of the

TMY3 algorithm.

2.8 TMY3 Process Development and Quality Control

To help guide our development and process validation for the TMY3, we re-created a 1961–1990

TMY with the updated software using data from the TD3282 NSRDB data set distributed by the

National Climatic Data Center. Missing meteorological fields were filled according to methods

used for the 1991-2005 NSRDB update. In addition, to evaluate the effects of drawing from

differing periods of time for the input data set, we compared each of the following year-span

subgroups using the original 1961–1990 TMY data set as a benchmark (Wilcox, et al., 2008).

• 1961–1990 (30 years for evaluating software algorithm changes)

• 1976–2005 (for evaluating an updated TMY from a 30-year data set)

• 1991–2005 (for evaluating an updated TMY from a 15-year data set)

• 1998–2005 (for evaluating an updated TMY from an 8-year data set).

The TMY software was run on each data set to create TMYs for the 233 sites common to all

subgroups (several sites among the 239 in the TMY2 data set did not have sufficient data for this

analysis) . We calculated a mean value for each parameter by site for each sub-group TMY.

Although means are only a minor consideration in the TMY algorithm, they are one

characteristic of climate and are a simple method of detecting large shifts or errors. The

differences in means between the original 1961-1990 TMY and the subgroups for direct normal

are shown in Figure 2-2. Separate plot curves are shown for each year-span subgroup.

The data in this plot show the least scatter when comparing the original and the re-created 1961–

1990 TMYs. For each of the remaining TMYs in order (1976–2005, 1991–2005, and 1998–

2005), increasing scatter is evident compared with the original 1961–1990 TMY. These results

are consistent with findings that smaller source data sets are less likely to accurately typify the

climate. Also conspicuous are data to the far left in each figure, which correspond to stations in

Alaska, where several sites show anomalous values for the 1998-2005 subgroup. At the far right

are stations in Hawaii, where other anomalies occur. Further study is required to understand

these larger departures.

Tables 2-1 and 2-2 hold summary data showing the means and standard deviations for these

comparison data sets. The statistics are found by determining the mean of sunup data for the

solar parameters and the mean of all data for meteorological parameters. Biases are determined

as the test TMY data set minus the original 61-90 TMY. This information may give the user

some indication of the increased uncertainty in the data with the smaller source data sets.

To further compare and validate the process, we looked at the frequency of each year’s selection

for the year-span subgroups. Figure 2-3 shows the comparison between the year selection

frequencies of the original 1961–1990 TMY and the re-created 1961–1990 TMY.

1990 TMYs.

Although some differences are apparent, the overall mix of the year selection closely correlates,

which we feel validates the current TMY production software. Note that years corresponding to

the eruptions of volcanoes El Chichón and Mount Pinatubo (1982–1984 and 1992–1994,

respectively) are not represented among the selected years. These years are explicitly excluded

by the TMY algorithm because the effects of increased aerosols on solar radiation for those years

are considered atypical.

Figure 2-4 shows the year selection frequency for the 1976–2005 TMY. Note that the updated

years 1991–2005 are under-represented in this data set (at about half the rate of 1976–1990).

Given that both groups (1976–1990 and 1991–2005) have an equal 15-year span, further study is

required to determine why the algorithm prefers data from the earlier years.

Figures 2-5 shows the year selection frequency for the TMYs derived from the 1991–2005 data

sets. Note that, although the years 1999–2005 are proportioned similarly between these two data

sets, 1998 is the least frequent year selected from years 1998–2005 in the former and the most

frequent in the latter.

2.9 Calculation of Illuminance Data

To facilitate lighting and energy analysis of buildings, hourly values for global horizontal

illuminance, direct normal illuminance, and diffuse horizontal illuminance in units of lux, and

zenith luminance in units of cd/m

were added to the TMY3 data. These elements were

calculated using luminous efficacy models developed by Perez et al. (1990). Inputs to the models

are direct normal radiation, diffuse horizontal radiation, solar zenith angle, and dew point

temperature.

2.10 Assignment of Source and Uncertainty Flags

With the exception of extraterrestrial horizontal and extraterrestrial direct radiation, each data

value was assigned a source and uncertainty flags. The source flag indicates whether the data

were measured, modeled, or missing, and the uncertainty flag provides an estimate of the

uncertainty of the data. Source and uncertainty flags for extraterrestrial horizontal and

extraterrestrial direct radiation are not provided because these elements were calculated using

equations considered to give values without significant error for this application.

Usually, the source and uncertainty flags are the same as the ones in the NSRDB, from which the

TMY files were derived. In the case of the TMY3 data files, the uncertainties are expressed as

plus-minus percent rather than the coded uncertainty used in the TMY2 files. Uncertainty values

apply to the data with respect to actual values at the time stamp, and not to how “typical” a

particular hour is for a future month and day. The uncertainty values represent the plus or minus

interval about the data value that contains the true value 95% of the time.

The uncertainty assigned to modeled solar radiation data includes primarily the bias error in the

model and, to a lesser extent, the random error component, which could be several times larger

for partly cloudy skies (Wilcox, 2007b). For partly cloudy skies, an hour can be composed of

large or small amounts of sunshine, depending on whether the sun is mostly free of the clouds or

occluded by the clouds. Consequently, modeled hourly values may depart significantly from true

values for partly cloudy skies. The uncertainty assigned to modeled solar radiation data

represents the average uncertainty for a large number of model estimates (such as for a month).

When averaging large data sets, random errors tend to cancel, leaving only the bias error.

Uncertainties for values of illuminance and luminance were determined by taking the root-sum-

square of the two main sources of error: (1) uncertainty of the solar radiation element (global

horizontal, direct normal, or diffuse horizontal radiation) from which the illuminance or

luminance element is derived, and (2) uncertainty of the model estimate. The uncertainty of the

model estimates are based on the evaluation presented by Perez et al. (1990) for six test stations.

To be conservative, the following model mean bias errors for the stations with the largest errors

were used:

• 1.2% for global horizontal illuminance

• 1.6% for direct normal illuminance

• 2.3% for diffuse horizontal illuminance

• 1.2% for zenith luminance.

The uncertainty of the illuminance data value was then determined as the root-sum-square of the

model uncertainty and solar radiation element uncertainty (for zenith luminance, the model value

was root-sum-squared with the global radiation uncertainty).

The use of the bias error, instead of bias and random error, is consistent with the approach in the

above paragraph concerning the assignment of uncertainty values to modeled solar radiation

elements. Consequently, it also has the same implications: The assigned uncertainty is

representative of the average uncertainty for a large number of model estimates (such as for a

month)..

For meteorological elements, relative uncertainties from the NSRDB were used. These

uncertainties do not portray a quantitative evaluation of the uncertainty of the meteorological

elements, but rather give relative uncertainties based on the data and the manner in which they

were derived (NSRDB-Vol. 1 1992).

The source and uncertainty flags for the solar radiation, illuminance, and meteorological

elements are presented in Tables 1-4 through 1-6.
