What is PVOUT for solar projects in India?

PVOUT is photovoltaic power potential in kWh per kWp per day: the long term average daily yield of a 1 kWp solar plant at a location. Indiagraphs samples Global Solar Atlas PVOUT at district headquarters.

How is indicative solar CUF calculated?

Indicative CUF (%) = PVOUT ÷ 24 × 100. It is a screening metric from Atlas PVOUT, not a measured plant capacity utilisation factor.

When is the solar radiation data from?

This Indiagraphs Energy Explorer labels solar radiation and PVOUT reference data as April 2026. Underlying Atlas values are long term climatic averages.

Which Indian districts have the highest solar potential?

Open the interactive map or state CUF accordions on this page to rank districts by PVOUT. High resource samples often appear in western India and high altitude regions such as Ladakh, with strong values also across Rajasthan, Gujarat and parts of central and southern India.

How do I estimate annual generation for a 1 MW solar plant?

Annual generation (kWh) ≈ PVOUT × 1,000 kWp × 365. The explorer shows this estimate for any selected district without stacking an extra generic loss factor on Atlas PVOUT. For acre and tariff based revenue, use the Solar Farm Income Calculator at /tools/solar-farm-income-calculator.

Where else can I find renewable energy data on Indiagraphs?

Browse Energy datasets at /category/energy, including monthly and yearly electricity generation by source, MNRE and Power ministry budgets, plus renewable energy data stories.

India solar radiation, PVOUT and CUF: district guide

This India Energy Explorer maps photovoltaic power potential (PVOUT) and indicative solar CUF for 740 district headquarters across 36 states and union territories. Values are long term averages from Global Solar Atlas, with solar radiation reference data for April 2026. Use the map above to compare districts, then browse every state's district CUF table below for rooftop solar, utility scale projects, research and investment screening. Pair a district CUF with the Solar Farm Income Calculator to turn resource quality into a first pass revenue estimate, or open Energy datasets for national generation and budget series.

What is PVOUT (solar PV potential)?

PVOUT is the specific photovoltaic power output in kWh per kWp per day: how much electricity a 1 kWp solar plant would produce on an average day at that location. Higher PVOUT means stronger solar resource for India solar farms, ground mounted plants and rooftop PV.

What is indicative solar CUF?

Capacity utilisation factor (CUF) estimates how much of nameplate capacity a plant delivers over time. Here, indicative CUF (%) = PVOUT ÷ 24 × 100. It is a screening metric from Global Solar Atlas PVOUT, not a substitute for site specific yield assessment.

India solar potential at a glance

Across sampled headquarters, district PVOUT ranges from 2.86 to 5.30 kWh/kWp/day (India mean 4.19; indicative mean CUF 17.4%). Western and high altitude districts often lead national solar irradiance rankings.

How to estimate annual solar generation

Annual generation (kWh) ≈ PVOUT × capacity (kWp) × 365. For a 1 MW (1,000 kWp) plant, multiply district PVOUT by 365,000. No extra generic loss factor is stacked on Atlas PVOUT in this calculator. For land area, tariff and acre based revenue, use the solar farm income tool.

Frequently asked questions

Which Indian states have the highest solar potential?

Open the state accordions below or the map choropleth to rank states by average district PVOUT. Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Ladakh commonly appear among high resource regions, but district samples vary within each state.

Is district solar CUF the same as plant CUF?

No. Indicative CUF here is derived only from long term PVOUT at the district headquarters sample point. Actual plant CUF depends on module technology, tilt, soiling, grid curtailment, temperature and design.

What does the April 2026 solar radiation reference mean?

The explorer labels solar radiation and PVOUT reference data as April 2026 for this Indiagraphs release. Underlying Global Solar Atlas values remain long term climatic averages sampled at headquarters coordinates.

Can I compare two districts for a solar project?

Yes. Use Compare Districts above to contrast PVOUT, indicative CUF and modelled 1 MW annual generation, then estimate acre revenue in the Solar Farm Income Calculator.

Where does the data come from?

Global Solar Atlas - Solar PV Potential from Global Solar Atlas. Metric: PVOUT (kWh/kWp/day). Coverage: 740 of 790 Indian districts (headquarters samples).

Where can I find other renewable energy data on Indiagraphs?

See monthly electricity generation by source, yearly CEA generation, MNRE budget data, and the full Energy category.
