What Is SSI and How Does It Work?
Suacci, pronounced (swatch’ ee), Solar Index (SSI) def. – an accurate means of measuring the amount of available or Usable Solar Energy (USE) striking the planet at any given area. This is different than irradiance, which is a measurement of solar power and is defined as the rate at which solar energy falls onto a surface. The unit of power is the Watt (W), and is measured as the watts per squared meter (W/m2). Energy striking the planet averages 1366 watts per (W/m2).
