No, this is the average across all land mass. You get where the majority of land mass is right? (Hint: not Northern Europe)

- littlestymaar 3y agoNo it's not. But maybe you're forgetting that days aren't 12 hours of noon. Maybe the “average at noon, including sunny and cloudy days, across landmass is 60%”, but that's very much not the same thing as “the average on a cloudy day is 60%”…
- onethought 3y agoAverage across all days across all land mass. It’s never a cloudy day across all land mass… so it averages out. I’m confused you aren’t following here
- littlestymaar 3y ago> It’s never a cloudy day across all land mass… But then again, how does that relate to your previous points: > you know solar still works even through clouds right? > So you could say 60% efficiency on a typical overcast day. We were talking about the impact of clouds on a particular spot, and now you're telling me that you're counting the average across landmass because it's never cloudy everywhere in the world… I suppose it means you retract your previous statements about solar panels working well even in the presence of clouds?
