The maps represent yearly sum of global irradiation on horizontal and optimally inclined surface, 10-years average of the period 1981-1990 [kWh/m2]. The same colour legend represents also potential solar electricity [kWh/kWp] generated by a 1 kWp system per year with photovoltaic modules mounted at an optimum inclination and assuming system performance ratio 0.75. The maps [...]

Approximately 75% of the total cost of energy for a wind turbine is related to upfront costs such as the cost of the turbine, foundation, electrical equipment, grid-connection and so on. Obviously, fluctuating fuel costs have no impact on power generation costs. Thus a wind turbine is capital-intensive compared to conventional fossil fuel fired technologies [...]
aleo solar AG has just announced that it will supply solar modules for several solar power facilities in Israel. This year, the sun-soaked Mediterranean country will see the installation of aleo modules with a rated output of more than 200 kilowatts. A total of 227 aleo S_18 modules were installed in a 50 kilowatts solar [...]
