Wind

Average wind speed through the year, banded into plain-language speed zones so a number reads as 'breezy' or 'calm' without knowing the scale.

This is the average sustained wind speed at the standard 10 metres above open ground — the steady flow a weather station reports, not the sharper gusts that come and go, which can run half again as fast. It's the number that says whether a place is generally breezy or calm.

Wind in Vaduz is steady company: average speeds sit near 4 km/hcalm — in every month of the year, with no meaningful windy or calm season.

Solar energy

Average daily shortwave solar energy reaching the ground, banded into brightness zones so the number means something at a glance.

Solar energy is how much sunlight actually reaches the ground each day, measured in kilowatt-hours per square metre (kWh/m²) — the combined effect of how long the sun is up, how high it climbs, and how much cloud gets in the way. It's the raw fuel a solar panel has to work with: for scale, 1 kWh/m² a day is dim and wintry, while 7+ is desert-bright.

Vaduz receives about 3.5 kWh/m² a day of solar energy on average — moderate — with a clear seasonal swing between 1.1 and 5.6 kWh/m².

The brighter stretch of the year lasts 6.2 months, from around Mar 14 to Sep 18. The brightest month is June, averaging about 5.5 kWh/m² (bright).

The dimmest month is December, down near 1.2 kWh/m² — roughly 79% less than the June peak.
