Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Buvalyne, Konotopskyi Raion, Sumy Oblast
Buvalyne: 1,111 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 38° 1° east of south (PVGIS). Exactly the oblast median (1,110). #36 of 318 in the rayon, #677 of 1534 in the oblast.
Konotop, the rayon centre, is 69 km away. 177 m above sea level. 69 km away: Konotop, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,110. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Суми, 71 km. 13.85 m between rows, pitch 17.62 m (latitude 51.4°).
