Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Rubanka, Romenskyi Raion, Sumy Oblast
Rubanka: 1,108 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 37° 1° east of south (PVGIS). Exactly the oblast median (1,110). #247 of 305 in the rayon, #826 of 1534 in the oblast.
Romny, the rayon centre, is 21 km away. 165 m above sea level. 21 km away: Romny, the nearest bigger centre, 1,126 — 1.6% less here. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Суми, 74 km. 12.80 m between rows, pitch 16.62 m (latitude 50.7°).
