Strait Highlands Energy Asset Mapping


The solar energy resource and generation potential are integral parts of the Strait-Highlands Region’s energy sustainability. As part of the Region’s planning process, our study identified the solar generation potential critical for enhancing energy security, providing energy savings and creating employment opportunities.


We provided a map set of monthly and annual average of global horizontal, direct normal and diffuse irradiation map for the Strait-Highlands Region in 1 km2 resolution, and a comprehensive solar energy generation potential study for three counties in the region. The project identified the solar energy-related opportunities in the region, providing a solid foundation for investment in solar technologies in the region.
