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 (<a
href="http://rredc.nrel.gov/solar/old_data/nsrdb/1991-2005/hourly/siteonthefly.cgi?id=725045">http://rredc.nrel.gov/solar/old_data/nsrdb/1991-2005/hourly/siteonthefly.cgi?id=725045</a>)
but that only provides data up to 2005.<br>
<br>
Any thoughts?<br>

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".<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br clear=all>
