Geographic and technical floating photovoltaic potential
Thermal Science, 2018 The photovoltaic geographic potential (PVGP) is defined as the fraction of the solar irradiation received on the land available for a photovoltaic facility. The area of this usable land is calculated by a suitability factor which is determined by a variety of different geographical constraints.
