Maps of Monthly Irradiation (Direct Component) for Normal Incidence (DNI) in 2006 - France
Each map below exhibits the direct component of the monthly irradiation received by a plane always facing the sun (DNI) for the year 2006, expressed in kWh/m². Below are one map per month plus one for the yearly irradiation and an animation for the year. Click on a map to enlarge it.
