Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Chepele, Zolochivskyi Raion, Lviv Oblast
Chepele: 1,083 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 37° 1° east of south (PVGIS). Exactly the oblast median (1,084). #50 of 180 in the rayon, #799 of 1532 in the oblast.
Zolochiv, the rayon centre, is 23 km away. 336 m above sea level. 23 km away: Zolochiv, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,081. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Тернопіль, 46 km. 11.98 m between rows, pitch 15.80 m (latitude 49.9°).
