  • This map is part of the UAE solar atlas developed by the Research Center for Renewable Energy Mapping and Assessment (ReCREMA) at Masdar Institute in Abu Dhabi. The UAE solar atlas utilizes satellite imagery through a robust ANN model to map the solar potential across the country. Estimated irradiance is subsequently validated against independent ground data. Direct normal irradiance (DNI), diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) and global horizontal irradiance (GHI) are produced at a 3 km spatial resolution and in a near real-time manner (updated every 15 min). Hourly, daily, monthly and yearly irradiation maps for all three components are derived as the final product. The UAE Solar Atlas report with a detailed explanation of the methodology and results is available at http://atlas.masdar.ac.ae/docs/ReCREMA_UAE_Solar Atlas_Report.pdf Relevant publications: Eissa, Y., Chiesa, M., Ghedira, H., Assessment and recalibration of the Heliosat-2 method in global horizontal irradiance modeling over the desert environment of the UAE, Solar Energy, Vol. 86, pp 1816-1825, 2012.

  • Units: Dry Tons, Metadata: BT2 Energy Crops 2022 $60/dry ton. These data are derived from the Billion Ton Update produced by Oak Ridge National Laboratory for the Department of Energy Office of Biomass Program.

  • Wind map is calculated, by simulating the atmosphere conditions with SKIRON mesoscale model. GFS 12 UTC cycle, from NCAR/NCEP is used as input. The period simulated is since January-2008 until December-2010. SKIRON long-term simulation is launched to cover the entire 3 years, generating hourly maps to the entire simulated period. With this output Africa wind map is computed averaging 10 meters wind speed from the nine years. Typically the grid horizontal resolution is 0.1 x 0.1 and has 38 vertical levels

  • Map of the monthly total precipitation, during the period 1971-2000, obtained by multivariate regression with altitude and distance to the coast, explanatory variables, and ordinary kriging of residues.
