What is solar insolation?; The amount of electromagnetic energy (solar radiation) incident on the surface Once you know your region's insolation level you can more accurately calculate collector size and energy output. What units are used to express Insolation levels?; The values are generally expressed in kWh/m2/day.

They are spatial interpolations of solar radiation values derived from the 1961-1990 National Solar Radiation Data Base (NSRDB) and published in the Solar Radiation Data Manual for Flat-Plate and Concentrating Collectors.

Solar maps provide monthly average daily total solar resource information on grid cells. 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.

Photo-voltaic solar panels (PV) are rated at 1000 W/m2. ... A device for determining insolation values for your location, both instantaneous, and with logging, daily averages, is called a Pyranometer. The following website gives a parts list and instructions (and provides a optional kit) for building and using a Pyranometer.

The values of solar insolation are commonly expressed in kWh/m 2/day. This is the amount of solar energy that strikes a square meter of the earth's surface in a single day. Insolation levels are used to determine what size solar collector is needed to efficiently provide adequate levels of hot water.
