Diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) measures the solar radiation received by a surface that does not arrive directly from the sun; the solar radiation that is not direct normal irradiance (DNI), but rather arrives through scattering by molecules and particles in the atmosphere. This map was developed by DLR as part of WBG's renewable energy mapping initiative. The map is an un-validated, satellite-derived estimate. As part of phase II of the WBG initiative, these maps will be validated through the use of ground measurement data, and until the data collection period is finished should be considered for policy use, rather than energy prospecting, following IRENA's classification of renewable energy data.
