Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Brody, Konotopskyi Raion, Sumy Oblast
Brody: 1,107 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 38° 2° east of south (PVGIS). Exactly the oblast median (1,110). #136 of 318 in the rayon, #904 of 1534 in the oblast.
Konotop, the rayon centre, is 19 km away. 144 m above sea level. 19 km away: Konotop, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,110. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Суми, 121 km. 13.48 m between rows, pitch 17.25 m (latitude 51.1°).
