The Global Solar Power Tracker is composed of worldwide facility-level data on utility-scale (1 MW+) solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal facilities, as well as country-aggregated distributed (<1 MW) solar PV data. In general, the intensity of solar radiation at any location is greatest when the sun is at its highest apparent position in the sky—at solar noon—on clear, cloudless days. For solar energy developers, choosing the right site can make the difference between a high-performing, financeable project and one stalled by permitting, grid constraints, or poor production.
