Electrification in the Central African Republic (CAR) continues to represent a critical challenge to its socio-economic development, particularly in rural areas, where access to electricity remains below 3%. In this context, photovoltaic solar energy stands out as an especially promising alternative, given the country’s considerable solar resource potential. The present study assesses the photovoltaic potential of Boali using hourly climatic data obtained from the SolarGIS and NASA POWER databases. The Skoplaki model was employed to estimate the operating temperature of the photovoltaic modules, which […] Read more at https://mjcellpress.com/article/mjes09/
