Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation Data Card

What is the US large-scale solar photovoltaic database?

The U.S. Large-Scale Solar Photovoltaic Database provides the locations and array boundaries of U.S. ground-mounted photovoltaic facilities, with capacity of 1 megawatt or more.

What data is collected from a low-voltage substation?

This dataset contains voltage, current, power, energy, and weather data from low-voltage substations and domestic premises with high uptake of solar photovoltaic (PV) embedded generation. Data collected as part of the project run by UK Power Networks.

What is solar photovoltaic (PV)?

Solar photovoltaic (PV) is an increasingly significant fraction of electricity generation. Efficient management, and innovations such as short-term forecasting and machine vision, demand high-resolution geographic datasets of PV installations.

What is the global solar power tracker?

The Global Solar Power Tracker is a worldwide dataset of utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal facilities. It covers all operating solar farm phases with capacities of 1 megawatt (MW) or more and all announced, pre-construction, construction, and shelved projects with capacities greater than 20 MW.

Are solar photovoltaic map services free?

Map services and data downloaded from the U.S. Large-Scale Solar Photovoltaic Database are free and in the public domain.

How many solar PV installations are there in the UK?

We present the results of a major crowd-sourcing campaign to create open geographic data for over 260,000 solar PV installations across the UK, covering an estimated 86% of the capacity in the country.
