Description

_(Abstract):_ This web site contains high-resolution wind and solar resource maps and data for Pakistan. _(Purpose):_ The products contained on this web site were developed by the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for the U.S. Agency for International Development's (USAID) South Asia Regional Initiative for Energy Cooperation (SARI/E). _(Supplemental Information):_ The high-resolution (1-km) annual wind power maps were developed using a numerical modeling approach along with NREL's empirical validation methodology. The high-resolution (10-km) annual and seasonal solar resource maps were developed using weather satellite data incorporated into a site-time specific solar mapping approach developed at the U.S. State University of New York at Albany. The data products are in a GIS (Geographic Information Systems) format. http://www.nrel.gov/international/ra_pakistan.html
