[pdf] Best Geographical Location Criteria for Solar PV Power Plants1. Solar Irradiance and Climate The best location for solar PV power plant starts with identifying areas that receive the most sunlight throughout the year. For example, southern Europe, such as Spain, Italy, and southern France, offers optimal solar irradiance compared to northern regions. . 2. Topographical Considerations
[pdf] To optimize performance, tilt your panels at an angle that is 10-15 degrees less than your latitude. For example, if you live at a latitude of 40 degrees, set your panels at about 25-30 degrees.
