In order to improve knowledge on solar resources, this paper analyses the models correlating daily global solar radiation with sunshine duration for Wuhan, China. Estimated values were compared with measured values in terms of statistical error tests such as mean percentage error (MPE), mean bias error (MBE), root mean square error (RMSE). The model performing best was selected. The global solar radiation estimated from the best model was compared with measured values. It was determined that the predicted values have good agreement with the measured values at high daily global solar radiation
