Description
An accurate assessment of solar energy potential is essential during the pre-feasibility stage of a project. In addition to needing reliable results, it is also important for the pre-feasibility analysis to be conducted efficiently. Tools like Solargis's iMaps and pvPlanner enable quick access to dependable solar yield estimates. The latest Prospect tool enhances the precision of these estimates and facilitates smoother collaboration during the solar project development process. Among the various solar databases, Solargis data is recognized for its superior accuracy and reliability, as supported by multiple independent studies. This data has been validated across more than 1000 locations worldwide, with validation statistics for over 180 non-confidential sites available on the validation map. While popular simulation software such as PVsyst offers sophisticated functionalities for system design and energy modeling, it is important to note that the default weather data provided in these tools may lack reliability. Therefore, utilizing validated solar data is key to optimizing project outcomes.
