| dc.description.abstract | The world currently faces a crisis in ensuring enough reserves to match the demand while advocating green renewable energy. With this, the use of solar energy in the Philippines, has risen through the years, considering that the country resides right above the equator, where the concentration and dispersion of solar irradiance are great. By doing this, further studies in solar energy planning are deemed necessary to ensure the viability and economic security of the production of solar power plants. This study assessed the country's solar power capability through various tests in different factors, including climatological data like Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI), other factors with the use of an analytical hierarchy process (AHP), and Geographic Information System (GIS). With Photovoltaic (PV) systems as the primary energy system, this study presents a suitability analysis for solar power in the Philippines. | |
