Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Protochnoye, Kurmanskyi Raion, Autonomous Republic of Crimea
Protochnoye: 1,257 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 35° 1° east of south (PVGIS). 2.1% below the oblast median (1,284). #114 of 126 in the rayon, #918 of 1025 in the oblast.
Kurman, the rayon centre, is 18 km away. 37 m above sea level. 18 km away: Kurman, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,262. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Херсон, 200 km. 8.45 m between rows, pitch 12.37 m (latitude 45.4°).
