National Climate Database (NCDB)

Dataset Yang, Jaemo ; Sengupta, Manajit ; Habte, Aron ; ...

The National Climate Database (NCDB) is a high resolution, bias-corrected climate dataset consisting of the three most widely used variables of solar radiation- global horizontal (GHI), direct normal (DNI), and diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI)- as well as other meteorological data. The goal of the NCDB is to provide unbiased high temporal and spatial resolution climate data needed for renewable energy modeling. The NCDB is modeled using a statistical downscaling approach with Regional Climate Model (RCM)-based climate projections obtained from the North American Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (NA-CORDEX; linked below). Daily climate projections simulated by the Canadian Regional Climate Modelmore »« less
The United Nations Population Statistics Database

Dataset Kovacs, K. ; Horvath, E.

The United Nations Energy Statistics Database (UNSTAT) is a comprehensive collection of international energy and demographic statistics prepared by the United Nations Statistics Division. The 2004 version represents the latest in the series of annual compilations which commenced under the title World Energy Supplies in Selected Years, 1929-1950. Supplementary series of monthly and quarterly data on production of energy may be found in the Monthly Bulletin of Statistics. The database contains comprehensive energy statistics for more than 215 countries or areas for production, trade and intermediate and final consumption (end-use) for primary and secondary conventional, non-conventional and new and renewablemore »« less
National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB)

Dataset Sengupta, Manajit ; Habte, Aron ; Xie, Yu ; ...

The National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) is a serially complete collection of meteorological and solar irradiance data sets for the United States and a growing list of international locations for 1998-2023. The NSRDB is updated annually and provides foundational information to support U.S. Department of Energy programs, research, industry and the general public. The NSRDB provides time-series data at 30-minute resolution of resource averaged over surface cells of 0.038 degrees in both latitude and longitude, or nominally 4 km in size. Additionally time series data at 5 minutes for the US and 10 minutes for North, Central and South Americamore »« less
The United Nations Conversion Factor Statistics Database

Dataset Horvath, E. ; Kovacs, K.

Energy analysis involving interfuel comparison entails the conversion of energy commodities into a standardized unit of measurement. To take into account the differences in heating values of various energy commodities, the conversion factors are often provided to enable conversion from original units to terajoules. The UN conversion factors are expressed in kilocalories per kilogram (Kcal/Kg). The standard conversion factor from kilocalaries to kilojoules is 4.1868.For conversion factors not found in the UNSTAT database, the standard conversion factors given below should be used to multiply the quantity in original units (in thousand metric tons, unless otherwise indicated) to terajoules.Solid Fuels:Hard coalmore »« less
ORNL National Hydropower Fish Passage Database

Dataset Matson, Paul ; Bozeman, Bryan ; DeRolph, Christopher ; ...

Fish passage facilities are used to mitigate impacts of hydropower dams to migratory fish in rivers, but information on the location, types, and characteristics of this infrastructure is incomplete at a national scale. Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) partnered with fish passage engineers and hydropower experts from the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA NMFS), and the Low Impact Hydropower Institute (LIHI) to create the first national scale database of fish passage infrastructure at US hydropower developments. This database consists of the ORNL_Fish_Passage_Dataset.zip file with 13 individual .csvmore »« less
