Abstract

In Morocco, the bright sunshine hours are measured in 30 meteorological stations, but the global irradiation is measured only in three stations within the country. The direct and diffuse components are not measured in any meteorological station. Therefore, we have established correlations for the estimation of the direct, global and diffuse radiation from the sunshine duration, n, or the clearness index, Kt, based on the measurements of the solar radiation components in Rabat. We have also made a comparison between our results and those of other researchers.
