Description

Future changes in solar photovoltaic (PV) energy production potential in Northern Europe were assessed by utilising daily solar radiation, snow and temperature data from 13 global climate models. Since the modelled snow cover data represent horizontal ground, the findings are chiefly apply to solar panels with a low tilt angle. Detailed description of the files is provided in the document file "data_description_pv_production_potential_under_changing_conditions.txt".
