Potential Photovoltaic Output kWh/m2 Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi 5km 2003-2013 WBG

Photovoltaic potential is essential to developing an economic understanding of a PV system. The PV potential is defined as the electric energy produced per peak power installed; it is modified by an efficiency modifier, which was estimated at 0.82 for this application. This map was developed by CENER as part of WBG's renewable energy mapping initiative.The map is an un-validated, satellite-derived estimate. As part of phase II of the WBG initiative, these maps will be validated through the use of ground measurement data, and until the data collection period is finished should be considered for policy use, rather than energy prospecting, following IRENA's classification of renewable energy data.
