Solar plant: site data
Solar power plant in Zaluzhany, Okhtyrskyi Raion, Sumy Oblast
Zaluzhany: 1,129 kWh per kWp a year, tilt 38° 1° east of south (PVGIS). 1.7% above the oblast median (1,110). #106 of 187 in the rayon, #122 of 1534 in the oblast.
Okhtyrka, the rayon centre, is 5 km away. 112 m above sea level. 5 km away: Okhtyrka, the nearest bigger centre, the same 1,129. Snow and wind from the nearest regional centre in the DBN — Суми, 62 km. 12.71 m between rows, pitch 16.48 m (latitude 50.4°).
