Solar energy in Riyadh
Our office is in Riyadh (Al Malaz district, Jarir Street), and our factory is in Al Kharj, which is a short distance away. This facilitates supply, inspection, and project follow-up in Riyadh and its surroundings.
How many panels are produced in Riyadh?
Average daily solar power output varies by season in Riyadh, with the optimal tilt angle for fixed panels being approximately 22° towards the south. Source: NASA POWER data via profileSOLAR.
summer
8.30 kWh per day per 1 kW of panels (theoretical average before losses).
autumn
6.42 kWh per day per 1 kW of panels (theoretical average before losses).
winter
4.92 kWh per day per 1 kW of panels (theoretical average before losses).
the spring
7.67 kWh per day per 1 kW of panels (theoretical average before losses).
Example estimate: A 10 kW system in Riyadh
An approximate calculation helps you imagine the size, and the actual number is determined after further study.
- Theoretical average production: 6.83 kWh per day per kW
- We deduct approximately 20% for losses (heat, dust, cables, inverter)
- Output: Approximately 1,990 kWh per year per kW of panels
- 10 kW system: approximately 19,900 kWh per year
The actual figure depends on
- Surface orientation and inclination, and shadows
- Panel type and inverter
- Cleaning and maintenance
- Consumption and storage methods
Climate considerations in Riyadh
summer heat
Summers in Riyadh are hot and dry, and the efficiency of the panels decreases as their temperature rises. We choose panels with a good thermal coefficient and leave a ventilation gap under the panels in the structures.
Dust and sandstorms
Dust reduces production if it accumulates on the panels. We recommend a regular cleaning schedule and monitoring production via your mobile device to know when to clean.
Mild winter and lower production
Production in winter is significantly lower than in summer, so we calculate the system size based on your loads in all seasons, not just summer.
