What is the PV potential available across Europe?

Fig. 1 shows the map of the PV potential available across Europe so that these areas are more prone to use this type of resource. As shown in Fig. 1, global radiation levels in southern Europe are very high, reaching 2200 kWh m −2 in some areas, compared to less than 600 kWh m −2 in the coldest areas in northern Europe.

How many modules are in a prototype PV plant?

Elements of the prototype PV plant. With respect to the photovoltaic modules, the number amounts to 476 144, arranged in 29 759 strings by 16 modules in series, as well as 425 inverters, thus being a PV plant with a large capacity.

What is the economic profitability of a PV plant?

As seen, the economic profitability range for a 261.879 MWp PV plant is between 404 and 1058 M€. As one moves towards the north, the profitability decreases, in accordance with the available PV potential. The southeastern part of the country has the highest profitability.

Where are PV panels produced?

The PV production map illustrates the areas where the annual average is higher, resulting in optimal locations for PV panels. The southeast of the country has the highest levels of PV production (dark colours), exceeding 482 GWhyear −1.
