Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Plotva, Siverskodonetskyi Raion, Luhansk Oblast
Plotva: 1,150 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 36° facing south (PVGIS). Exactly the oblast median (1,150). #52 of 100 in the rayon, #460 of 964 in the oblast.
Siverskodonetsk, the rayon centre, is 28 km away. 196 m above sea level. 28 km away: Siverskodonetsk, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,150. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Харків, 210 km. 10.73 m between rows, pitch 14.60 m (latitude 48.7°).
