Solar PV generation time series (PECD 2021 update)

This data (csv file) provides simulated hourly time series of solar PV generation for the regions shown in the attached map. The best 50 % of locations (in terms of mean irradiance) within each region are simulated, with south-facing installations and tilt angles approximately representing existing installations. A generic PV module and inverter are assumed. The meteorological data are from ERA5-Land and pvlib is used for the transformation to power generation (see references below). The map shows the resulting capacity factors (annual mean).
The time stamps are in GMT; the variable (column) names relate to the region names shown in the maps. The data include also country-level aggregations, e.g., UK00 is the aggregated solar PV generation of all the UK regions (weighted by regional installed capacities).
The data are part of the variable renewable energy generation time series created for ENTSO-E in the 2021 update of the Pan-European Climate Database (PECD) dataset. ENTSO-E has used the data in ERAA 2021 and Winter Outlook 2021-2022 assessments, and they are used in TYNDP 2022. The simulations are carried out by DTU Wind Energy, with the future technology selection and data validation discussed and agreed with ENTSO-E and its members.

本数据集（csv文件）提供了模拟的每小时太阳能光伏发电时序数据，数据所涉及的地区详见所附地图。每个区域内，模拟了平均辐照度最高的50%的地点，其安装朝向均为南向，倾斜角度近似反映现有安装情况。假设使用通用的光伏模块和逆变器。气象数据源自ERA5-Land，并利用pvlib进行能量转换至发电量（详见参考文献）。地图展示了由此产生的容量系数（年平均值）。时间戳以格林威治标准时间（GMT）表示；变量（列）名称与地图上显示的地区名称相对应。数据还包括国家层面的汇总，例如，UK00代表所有英国地区太阳能光伏发电的汇总（按地区装机容量加权）。这些数据是作为ENTSO-E在2021年更新的泛欧洲气候数据库（PECD）数据集的变量可再生能源发电时序数据的一部分而创建的。ENTSO-E已将数据用于2021年ERA-A和2021-2022年冬季展望的评估中，并且这些数据也被用于2022年的TYNDP中。模拟工作由DTU Wind Energy执行，未来技术选择和数据验证已与ENTSO-E及其成员讨论并达成一致。本项数据是风能和太阳能数据集更大系列的一部分：https://doi.org/10.11583/DTU.c.5939581。
