Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Melnychne, Sambirskyi Raion, Lviv Oblast
Melnychne: 1,038 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 37° 2° east of south (PVGIS). 4.2% below the oblast median (1,084). #219 of 264 in the rayon, #1431 of 1532 in the oblast.
Sambir, the rayon centre, is 46 km away. 657 m above sea level — above 500 m the DBN snow and wind are higher. 44 km away: Drohobych, the nearest bigger centre, 1,073 — 3.3% less here. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Ужгород, 76 km. 11.31 m between rows, pitch 15.13 m (latitude 49.1°).
