4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Solar power generation in Belarus"

Is solar power possible in Belarus?

In terms of global horizontal irradiation (GHI) and direct normal irradiation (DNI), most of Belarus receives only 1 100 kilowatt hours per square metre (kWh/m 2) to 1 400 kWh/m 2 of GHI, and around 1 000 kWh/m 2 of DNI. This means that concentrated solar power (CSP) generation is impractical, but production by means of solar PV is possible.

Are there hydropower resources in Belarus?

Hydropower resources in Belarus are deemed scarce, though there are opportunities for small hydro in the northern and central parts of the country. Total hydropower potential is estimated at 850 MW, including technically available potential of 520 MW and economically viable potential of 250 MW (0.44 Mtoe/year).

Does Belarus have a geothermal potential?

Belarus's geothermal potential is relatively undiscovered, with only a few regions having been tested. Of the tested regions, the most promising geothermal energy potential lies in the Pripyat Trough (Gomel region) and the Podlasie-Brest Depression (Brest region), in dozens of abandoned deep wells.

What technology is used in Belarus?

The technology with the most mature local market is biomass, currently used mainly in heat generation. Belarus is still in the early stages of deploying wind, solar PV and biogas, although the technologies used in their development are considered mature and meet international standards.
