    1. Lessons from Solar Radiation Distribution Graphs These solar radiation distribution graphs may be used to better understand and communicate the relative effects of the sun’s energy on the walls and roof of a building. For optimized daylighting design, it is important to distinguish between direct and diffuse sunlight. Diffuse sunlight offers a much better potential for energy savings. These graphs can be used in tandem with building specific energy simulations (Comfen, Ecotect, Radiance, etc.) to help explain the beneficial impact of high performance green building strategies.These solar radiation distribution graphs may be used to better understand and communicate the relative effects of the sun’s energy on the walls and roof of a building.
