  • The NOAA Solar Radiation Network is a collection of stations that provides solar radiations information, specifically, the amount of energy a user can expect from the Sun. History: NOAA and its predecessor agencies, the Environmental Science Services Administration and the Weather Bureau, have had the Federal civilian responsibilities for monitoring and documenting the climate of the United States, including solar radiation and many other weather elements required by the solar energy technology user. The solar radiation monitoring network has existed for about 75 years with varying numbers of stations. In the 1960's about 60 NOAA stations and 30 cooperative stations were reporting solar radiation data to the National Climatic Center (NCC) in Asheville, N.C. In addition, State, local, and private organizations were making measurements with varying degrees of regularity and quality. These non-NOAA networks continue and, if anything, have increased in number, and with DOE help some of their data will be archived and published by the NCC. Network Centers: The current network consists of 39 stations of which 35 are in the contiguous U.S. The remaining are in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam. All stations are equipped to operate both a pyranometer and pyrheliometer.
