Solar panel installation in Moscow

How to optimize solar generation in Moscow?

Assuming you can modify the tilt angle of your solar PV panels throughout the year, you can optimize your solar generation in Moscow, Russia as follows: In Summer, set the angle of your panels to 39° facing South. In Autumn, tilt panels to 59° facing South for maximum generation.

Is Moscow a good place for solar PV projects?

The area around Moscow has several large lakes, including Lake Seliger and Lake Nero, which could be suitable for solar PV projects. Areas to the south-east of the city have some higher elevations that could also be suited for larger scale solar PV projects.

How much solar energy does Moscow generate per kW?

In Moscow, Russia (latitude: 55.7483, longitude: 37.6171), the potential for solar energy generation varies significantly across different seasons. The average daily energy output per kW of installed solar capacity is as follows: 5.93 kWh in summer, 1.60 kWh in autumn, 0.91 kWh in winter, and 4.27 kWh in spring.

What angle should solar panels be positioned in Russia?

During Winter, adjust your solar panels to a 68° angle towards the South for optimal energy production. Lastly, in Spring, position your panels at a 48° angle facing South to capture the most solar energy in Moscow, Russia. Our recommendations take into account more than just latitude and Earth's position in its elliptical orbit around the Sun.
