S.s. Kondawar, U.b. Vaidya . Evaluating the Global Solar Energy Potential at Chandrapur, India. International Conference on Emerging Frontiers in Technology for Rural Area (EFITRA-2012). EFITRA, 3 (April 2012), 9-11.
Evaluation of the global solar energy potential at chandrapur, latitude 20.06 N and longitude 70.3 E was carried out in this work. The amount of incident solar radiation significantly determines the electricity produced by Photovoltaic (PV) system . The paper reports a novel method to measure the potential of solar electricity generation in chandrapur on the basis of solar radiation data obtained for one year. Further, possible plant capacity is estimated for an arbitrary chosen area. The results supported justified the method proposed
