Solar PV potential in Uzbekistan by location
Below is the average daily output per kW of Solar PV installed for each season, along with the ideal solar panel tilt angles calculated for various locations in Uzbekistan. Click on any location for more detailed information.
Explore the solar photovoltaic (PV) potential across 3 locations in Uzbekistan, from Tashkent to Samarkand. We have utilized empirical solar and meteorological data obtained from NASA's POWER API to determine solar PV potential and identify the optimal panel tilt angles for these locations.
Feel free to contact us if you wish for us to include a general Solar PV Analysis for a certain city or location not already listed here for Uzbekistan. We will be more than happy to manually add it for you.
Location | Subdivision | Latitude | Longitude | kWh/day Summer | kWh/day Autumn | kWh/day Winter | kWh/day Spring | Panel Tilt Angle |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Tashkent | Tashkent | 41.2615 | 69.2177 | 8.32 | 4.38 | 2.46 | 6.02 | 35° South |
Bukhara | Bukhara | 39.7686 | 64.4258 | 8.16 | 4.61 | 2.66 | 6.37 | 34° South |
Samarkand | Samarqand Region | 39.6588 | 66.9615 | 8.39 | 4.59 | 2.66 | 6.21 | 34° South |
Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Uzbekistan
So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 3 locations in Uzbekistan, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Uzbekistan varies between 35° from the horizontal plane facing South in Tashkent and 34° from the horizontal plane facing South in Samarkand.
These tilt angles are optimised for maximum annual PV output at each location for fixed-panel solar PV installations. If you click on one of the locations above, there is further detail on ideal seasonal tilt angles as well (in case your solar panels are adjustable).
Depending on where you are based in Uzbekistan, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 1 degree (between 35° from the horizontal plane facing South and 34° from the horizontal plane facing South).
Uzbekistan solar PV Stats as a country
Uzbekistan ranks 86th in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 104 total MW's of solar PV installed. Each year Uzbekistan is generating 3 Watts from solar PV per capita (Uzbekistan ranks 82nd in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]
Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Uzbekistan?
Yes, there are incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Uzbekistan. The government has implemented a number of policies and programs to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources such as solar power. These include tax exemptions, subsidies, and other financial incentives for businesses that invest in solar energy projects. Additionally, the government has established a Renewable Energy Fund which provides grants and loans to support renewable energy projects.
