Site Suitability Analysis for Potential Solar Power Generation Keywords: - PV Potential estimation, Solar
radiation, Geographic Information Site Analysis. Region: - Pune, Maharashtra. India due to its geographic
position certainly posses a distinctive advantage in solar power generation which if rightly tapped can
help India to meets its power requirements in a sustainable and eco-friendly manner. Today, we are facing
a grim situation in terms of energy (electricity) production using conventional methods. There is a
substantial difference between consumption and production. And in future this difference is going to be
widened. For this elaborate use of non-conventional energy provides an appropriate solution. Using GIS
we interpreted the results by analysing Orthographic Information (viz. Land use, land cover etc.), solar
insolation, and parcel information. A Map was created showing the suitable sites, to harness solar power
in Pune district of Maharashtra state, India.
