Hourly global horizontal irradiance data of three stations in Punjab, Pakistan

This paper presents hourly Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) measured data at three stations (Lahore, Multan, Bahawalpur) in Punjab, Pakistan. The estimated GHI data from three reanalysis datasets have also been presented. Clearness index (KT), Solar zenith angle (θsza) and Periodicity factor (Pf)...
