Based on historical Pecos, NM data, solar panels that always track the sun throughout the day will produce the maximum solar energy output in Pecos. [1]
Pecos has an average monthly Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) of 5.34 kilowatt hours per square meter per day (kWh/m2/day), which is approximately 27% less than the average monthly Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) of 7.35 kWh/m2/day. [1]
Solar installations in Pecos that are always titled at the latitude of Pecos (Average Tilt at Latitude or ATaL) average 6.34 kWh/m2/day, or about 19% greater than the average monthly GHI of 5.34 kWh/m2/day and approximately 14% less than the average monthly DNI of 7.35 kWh/m2/day. [1]
Global Horizontal Irradiance: The total amount of solar radiation that is received per unit area by a surface that is always positioned in a horizontal manner.
Direct Normal Irradiance: The total amount of solar radiation received per unit area by a surface that is always perpendicular to the sun rays that come in a straight line from the direction of the sun at its current position in the sky.
Average Tilt at Latitude: The total amount of solar radiation received per unit area by a surface that is tilted toward the equator at an angle equal to the current latitude. ATaL will often produce the optimum energy output.

* Amounts listed in kWh/m2/day (kilowatt hours per square meter per day)
Pecos, NM has a average annual solar radiation value of 6.32 kilowatt hours per square meter per day (kWh/m2/day). [1]
The month with the highest historical solar radition values in Pecos is June with an average of 6.8 kWh/m2/day, followed by March at 6.71 kWh/m2/day and April at 6.69 kWh/m2/day. [1]
The three months that historically average the lowest average solar radiation levels in Pecos (New Mexico) are December with an average of 5.66 kWh/m2/day, followed by July with an average of 5.71 kWh/m2/day and January at 6.05 kWh/m2/day. [1]
The average monthly solar radiation level in Pecos, NM, of 6.32 kilowatt hours per square meter per day (kWh/m2/day) is approximately 61% greater than the average level of 3.93 kWh/m2/day in a city with historically low levels (WA) and is approximately 4% less than the average level of 6.61 kWh/m2/day in a city with historically high levels (NV).
