The global solar atlas provides a summary of solar power potential and solar resources globally. To make the above maps the multiyear solar irradiance was calculated from the nsrdb. Solar resource data sets. Just a matter of when.

Pertinent news considering the upcoming australian election the guardian uk has created an interactive map of solar power in australia by federal electorate. Solar power in australia is a fast growing industry. In 2019 59 solar pv projects with a combined capacity of 2 881 mw were either under construction constructed or due to start construction.
