[Bldg-sim] [Equest-users] Hrly Solar Data

[James V Dirkes II, PE]

You can also download data from a Web site like www.wunderground.com which
keeps historical weather data.  I've used the attached spreadsheet and
accompanying macro  (which may have come from someone on this or the
EnergyPlus list, but I forgot.)

Eric-

I do not think that NREL provides hourly data from 2009. The links on that
page are all average monthly. The only other place I would think to look
would be the National Solar Radiation Data Base
(http://rredc.nrel.gov/solar/old_data/nsrdb/1991-2005/hourly/siteonthefly.cg
i?id=725045) but that only provides data up to 2005.

Any thoughts?

All-

Does anyone know where I can buy/find 2009 hourly solar data for US Cities?
I'm specifically looking for 2009 Solar Data for New Haven, CT and I need
"Global Horizontal Radiation" and "Direct normal Radiation".

Thanks,
