With this update, now provides TMYx climate data at no cost for more than 16,100 locations in more than 195 countries and another 5,200 files from other data sources. In these cases, there’s a TMY for the entire period of record and a second TMY for the most recent 15 years (2007-2021). Often, there are two TMYx for a location, e.g., for Washington Dulles Intl AP: USA_VA_.724030_TMYx and USA_VA_.724030_TMYx.2007-2021. The TMYx are derived from hourly weather station meteorology data through 2021 in the ISD (US NOAA/NCEI’s Integrated Surface Database) and gridded solar radiation data from ERA5 reanalysis using the TMY2/ISO 15927-4:2005 methodologies. The new data (and all other weather files on the site including the 2004-2018 TMYx) also now include the latest ASHRAE 2021 design conditions. The ERA5 data, courtesy of Oikolab ( /), provides a comprehensive, worldwide gridded solar radiation data set based on satellite data. These include weather station meteorology data through 2021 and corresponding solar radiation from the ERA5 reanalysis data set ( ERA5 | ECMWF). In April 2022, Climate.OneBuilding ( ) posted a completely updated worldwide TMYx data set adding more than 2500 new locations (>15% increase), bringing the total to more than 16,100 locations.
