At the moment the calculations that can be made with PVGIS are: Performance of grid-connected PV Here you can calculate the long-term average energy output from PV systems that are connected to the electricity grid so that the energy produced can be used locally or sent to the grid. This works for fixed PV systems, where the PV modules are mounted in a fixed position,
A new map published by the European Commission shows the photovoltaic solar energy potential of different parts of Europe. Photovoltaic Solar Cells convert sunlight directly into electricity.
Aggregated data of solar and PV potential for European countries and regions is available. Monthly/daily irradiance data via clickable maps. Location can also be specified using latitude and longitude. Output as graphs, webpage, text file or PDF.
This is the download page for a suite of tools and data sets for producing digital maps of solar irradiation and PV energy yield predictions. These tools have been used to produce maps and data sets for the PVGIS online PV estimation tool. User''s Manual The user''s manual explains how to install the software and data and how to run the different

NUTS-1 and NUTS-2 level is available as part of the JRC ''s EMHIRES dataset$, generated using PVGIS''s algorithms. Relevance for regional authorities PVGIS is useful for local authorities who are planning installation of PV on public buildings or are preparing
PVGIS can be used to calculate how much energy different kinds of photovoltaic systems can be generated at any location in Europe and Africa, as well as a large part of Asia and America. Find out more about the PVGIS Tool .
PVGIS online tool for making quick estimates of PV energy yield and solar irradiation. The tool is freely available to everybody. The last version, PVGIS-5, was launched in 2017 with enhanced capabilities. Online tools: EUMETSAT CM SAF 5 thUser workshop, 4
The Photovoltaic Geographical Information System (PVGIS) provides web access to:•solar radiation and temperature data•PV performance assessment tools PVGIS Internet tools for the assessment of photovoltaic solar energy systems - European Commission
• PVGIS helps regional and local policy-makers to assess the potential for PV and other solar energy installations for single locations or discrete sets of locations • PVMAPS can be used to perform geospatial estimates of PV performance, suitable
eConservation is an application of the Digital Observatory for Protected Areas (DOPA) developed by the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. With a focus on EU funding, eConservation provides critical information on funding from public donors worldwide to support biodiversity conservation.

PVGIS-CMSAF (Europe, Africa). This database has a significantly larger uncertainty than SARAH and cannot be extended temporally any more. PVGIS-CMSAF will be removed in 2021. PVGIS-COSMO. ERA5 will remain as the only alternative in regions outside the coverage of satellite-based databases. PVGIS-COSMO will be removed in 2021.
Hourly data set of nine climatic variables over a "typical" year, formatted for building energy calculation tools. Key Features Free and open access to photovoltaic (PV) electricity generation potential for different technologies and configurations.

The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
