Surface solar irradiation, or daily solar exposure in Mozambique in Wh/m2. Global. Apr. 10-years average (2004-2013) of monthly mean of daily irradiation received on a horizontal plane (or a plane always facing the sun if DNI). Copyright 2014 MINES ParisTech, University Eduardo Mondlane, Mozambique Meteorological Institute MINES ParisTech has developed the Heliosat-2 method that converts 15 min Meteosat images into irradiation maps and stores them into the HelioClim-3 database. The HelioClim-3 irradiations are combined with estimates of the irradiation that should be observed if the sky were clear at these instants.The estimates of clear-sky irradiation are provided by the McClear model. A monthly irradiation is computed only if at least 25 daily irradiations are valid in the month. To complete the month, the irradiation of a missing day is computed by taking into account the mean value of the valid days and the daily irradiation at the top of atmosphere for this missing day. A day is valid if the database contains at least one 15-min irradiation for this day. Gaps in a day are filled by taking into account the available 15-min irradiation and the 15-min irradiation at the top of atmosphere. The other irradiation components (direct, diffuse) received on an horizontal or plane normal to sun rays are then computed using a published empirical model. HelioClim-3 data and diffuse and direct components on any plane are provided on the Web via the SoDa Service (www.soda-is.com and pro.soda-is.com) since 2004. Such data are used by academics for teaching and research in solar energy, environment, climate and others, and by companies for the sitting of solar plants (PV, CST), their sizing, and the monitoring of their production.The French company Transvalor is in charge of the SoDa Service and provides also a series of user-tailored services, such as maps similar to those for Mozambique. MINES ParisTech and Transvalor have set up the McClear Clear-Sky Irradiation service that delivers time series of clear sky global, direct, direct normal, and diffuse irradiation for any site in the world, any period of time starting in 2004 up to now, with a time step ranging from 1 min to 1 month. The McClear model is an outcome of the MACC and MACC-II EU-funded projects.

The Business as Usual (BAU) scenario projects a future in which historical trends in yield levels and livestock productivity are continued, resulting in a low agricultural productivity. The progressive scenario assumes the implementation of improved agricultural management resulting in a high agricultural productivity. The land use changes for each year towards 2030 were modelled on high resolution by allocating land to a land use class based on the suitability for the specific land use classes. Areas that are not suitable (such as steep slopes) or not allowed (such as conservation areas) to be converted to agricultural land, were excluded. Based on the allocation of land use classes and the maps of excluded areas for bioenergy production (such as forest areas), the land availability for bioenergy crops is determined.

The North Pacific ACP (African, Caribbean and Pacific) Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Project (North-REP) is a unique project aimed at developing the energy sectors of the Federated States of Micronesia, The Republic of the Marshall Islands and Palau. These three SPC members have pooled the combined € 14,4 million from European Development Fund 10 resources and entrusted SPC to manage the project. This highlights the special partnership between a provider of technical assistance and services and its recipient member countries and territories. It also highlights the collaboration and vision in working together for the betterment of livelihoods in the north Pacific region. http://www.spc.int/edd/fr/section-01/energy-overview/energy/77-north-pacific-acp-renewable-energy-and-energy-efficiency-project-north-rep Copyright: SolarGIS © 2013 GeoModel Solar.
