    The document defines several key metrics for assessing solar PV potential: - Theoretical PV potential is the total solar resource available on a horizontal surface. - Practical PV potential accounts for actual PV system output under different land constraints. - Economic PV potential considers the lifetime cost of electricity production. - Other metrics include PV equivalent area needed and seasonality of solar output.

    Theoretical PV Potential

    Global horizontal irradiance, the longterm amount of solar resource available on a horizontal
    surface on Earth, measured in kWh/m2/day. It is the sum of direct (DNI) and diffuse (DIF)
    components.

    Practical PV Potential
    Photovoltaic power output of a PV system (specific yield); in this case, the longterm power
    ouput produced by a utility-scale installation of monofacial modules fixed mounted at an
    optimum tilt, measured in kWh/kWp/day
    • Level 0 - Practical potential disregarding any land-use constraints
    • Level 1 - Level 0 practical potential, excluding land with identifiable physical obstacles to
    utility-scale pv plants
    • Level 2 - Level 1 practical potential, excluding land possibly under land use regulations due
    to nature and cropland protection

    Economic PV Potential
    Levelized cost of electricity - the lifetime costs associated with construction and operation of
    the power plant divided by the electricity produced during this lifetime, measured in USD/kWh
    (the lower the cost, the higher is the economic potential)

    PV equivalent area
    Presumed country area proportion to be covered by PV plants producing the equivalent of
    yearly electricity consumption. The calculation assumes fixed-mounted, monofacial C-Si
    modules with optimum tilt and row spacing. The estimated area includes both the active area
    of PV modules and the area between the module rows.

    PV seasonality index
    Ratio between the highest and the lowest of monthly long-term PVOUT averages

    LCOE - Levellized cost of electricity
    PVOUT - Photovoltaic power output
    PV – Photovoltaic
    Potencial fotovoltaico teórico
    Irradiancia horizontal global, la cantidad a largo plazo de recurso solar disponible en una
    superficie horizontal de la Tierra, medida en kWh / m2 / día. Es la suma de componentes
    directos (DNI) y difusos (DIF).

    Potencial fotovoltaico práctico


    Salida de energía fotovoltaica de un sistema fotovoltaico (rendimiento específico); en este
    caso, la salida de energía a largo plazo producida por una instalación a escala de servicios
    públicos de módulos monofaciales fijos montados en una inclinación óptima, medida en kWh /
    kWp / día
    • Nivel 0: potencial práctico sin tener en cuenta las limitaciones de uso de la tierra
    • Nivel 1: potencial práctico de nivel 0, excluyendo terrenos con obstáculos físicos
    identificables para plantas fotovoltaicas a gran escala.
    • Nivel 2: potencial práctico de nivel 1, excluyendo tierras posiblemente bajo regulaciones de
    uso de la tierra debido a la protección de la naturaleza y las tierras de cultivo

    Potencial fotovoltaico económico


    Costo nivelado de la electricidad: los costos de por vida asociados con la construcción y
    operación de la planta de energía divididos por la electricidad producida durante esta vida,
    medidos en USD / kWh (cuanto menor es el costo, mayor es el potencial económico)

    Área equivalente fotovoltaica


    Presunta proporción de la superficie del país que deben cubrir las plantas fotovoltaicas que
    producen el equivalente al consumo anual de electricidad. El cálculo asume módulos de C-Si
    monofaciales de montaje fijo con una inclinación y un espaciado de filas óptimos. El área
    estimada incluye tanto el área activa de los módulos fotovoltaicos como el área entre las filas
    de módulos.

    Índice de estacionalidad fotovoltaica


    Relación entre el mayor y el menor de los promedios mensuales de PVOUT a largo plazo
