6 FAQs about [Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation Atlas]

What is the Global Solar Atlas (GSA)?

The Global Solar Atlas (GSA) is a free, online, map-based application that provides information on solar resource and photovoltaic power potential globally. It features the online interactive map tools, simplified photovoltaic (PV) power calculator, reporting tools and the extensive download section.

What is the Global Solar Atlas?

There is a unique opportunity of PV technology to provide affordable, reliable, and sustainable electricity services to a large share of humanity where improved economic opportunities and quality of life are the most needed. The Global Solar Atlas provides a summary of solar power potential and solar resources globally.

What is global photovoltaic power potential by country?

The World Bank has published the study Global Photovoltaic Power Potential by Country, which provides an aggregated and harmonized view on solar resource and the potential for development of utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) power plants from the perspective of countries and regions.

What is the theoretical potential for PV power generation?

Theoretical potential for PV power generation is best characterized by the long-term distribution of solar resource, in other words, the ‘amount of fuel’ available for PV electricity generation at a given loca-tion.

When was PV power potential calculated?

The first detailed global overview of PV power potential has been calculated by Solargis, in 2016, and released within the Global Solar Atlas . The data was further updated in 2019.

What raster data is used to calculate photovoltaic power potential (pvout)?

The primary input is a global raster data layer, representing the long-term average of photovoltaic power potential (PVOUT), calculated by the Solargis approach. We consider a typical large-scale PV power plant.
