According to the previously conducted analyzes submitted by the applicant, it was determined that the potential amount of annual electricity produced from the solar power plant with a total power of 12.50 MW is stated in the document.
As explained, the total expected annual production in the first year of operation of the power plant per 1 kW of solar panels is 1,408 kWh. Taking into account that the available area is 160,000 m2 and that 12.8 m2 is needed to install 1 kWp of solar panels with the provision of optimal distance between the rows, 12,500 kWp DC, i.e. 10,400 kW AC can be installed at the Draževina location – it is stated, among other things, in documentation.
Taking into account the estimated annual production from 1 kWp solar panels of 1,408 kWh, the expected annual production from the future SE Draževina in the first year of operation will amount to 17,600,000 kWh.
