Name: NREL National Solar Radiation Database on AWS
Description: |
  The [National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB)](https://nsrdb.nrel.gov/) is
  a serially complete collection of hourly and half-hourly values of the three
  most common measurements of solar radiation – global horizontal, direct
  normal, and diffuse horizontal irradiance — and meteorological data. These
  data have been collected at a sufficient number of locations and temporal and
  spatial scales to accurately represent regional solar radiation climates.
