Comparative Environmental Assessments in Solar Energy Systems
Using life cycle analysis (LCA), this research compares small-scale rooftop and large-scale ground-mounted PV systems, evaluating energy intensity, carbon emissions, and water usage.
Efficiency of Photovoltaic Systems in Mountainous Areas
We report a comparative case study, which presents measurement results at two distinct sites, one at a height of 612 meters and another one at a mountain site at a height of 1764 meters.
General layout design of mountain PV plant based on
Finally, to verify the feasibility of the active PV array system in real-life production, an experimental platform is built, and an operational test experiment of the active PV array system under...
Integrating remote sensing, GIS, and multi-criteria decision making for
In this study, a framework was proposed to assess the feasibility and generation potential of solar PV in mountainous areas by remote sensing (RS), geographic information systems (GIS),
Modeling and analysis of rooftop solar potential in highland and
This paper presents a methodology for obtaining solar cadastres, based on the Solar Energy on Building Envelopes (SEBE) model incorporated in QGIS and applied to French
ANALYSIS OF THE SPATIAL SCALE OF SOLAR CONTAINER
Optimal spatial planning is crucial for utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) development for eficient energy utilization and the mitigation of land-use conflicts and environmental disruptions.
ESTIMATION OF SOLAR RADIATION ON BUILDING ROOFS IN
A multi-scale solar radiation estimation methodology is proposed that combines 3D data ranging from regional scale to the architectural one. Both the terrain and the nearby building shadowing effects are
Optimal spatial arrangement of modules for large‐scale photovoltaic
In summary, the factors that affect the efficiency of PV farms include spatial position, electrical connection, terrain, and so forth. However, the existing literature did not consider these
(PDF) Comparison of solar power measurements in alpine areas
We report a comparative case study, which presents measurement results at two distinct sites, one at a height of 612 meters and another one at a mountain site at a height of 1764 meters.
Frontiers | Confirmation of the power gain for solar photovoltaic
In this article, early results from the first utility-scale, Alpine-PV power plant in Switzerland are reported and compared to a reference test site. The aim is to confirm the reported performances
