LESSON
Purpose:To determine areas of the country which are most likely to produce solar energy by analyzing differences in incoming solar radiation graphs.
Introduce as a rock star tour
Solar Cell Availability from around the country Where can you go?

Parameter being used
•Monthly Surface All-Sky Short Wave Downward Flux data is used to generate the resultant plots.
•This data is gathered using the CERES instrument on the Terra and Aqua satellites

BEGIN THE LESSONConstraints
You will live part of every year in Sheridan ,WYTraveling around the country you must live in at least one other place during the year but you can only live in a maximum of 4 placesEach place must have an average sunlight of 100 watts/m2 to run your needed electrical powerYou must live in the US
Determine the following:Where will you live each month of the year?How does the monthly average solar radiation compare to Sheridan?Find one place you might like to live during a particular season , but are unable to do so due to low solar radiation levels.
