Energy Output Evaluation from Aphotovoltaic System at Different Selected Sites in Jordan

Solar energy is one of the best solutions for Jordan energy problems, as Jordan is a sunny country with 300 sunny days over the year. This study presents a calculation of the energy output from a PV system at six selected sites in Jordan: Ajloun (32˚ N, 36˚ E), Salt (32˚ N, 36˚ E), Madaba (32˚ N, 36˚ E), Karak(31˚ N, 36˚ E), Tafelh(31˚ N, 35˚ E) and Maan(30˚ N, 35˚ E). The paper studies the radiation data of the sun with the ambient temperature, in order to make a comparison of the energy output from the selected sites. The result showed that Madaba and Maanare the optimum sites for the PV application investment comparing to the other sites.
