摘要
Given ambitious plans to increase the amount of electricity production from renewable resources and the natural resources of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), solar energy stands as a technology with a great development potential in this country. In this work, the suitability of the territory is assess through a geospatial analysis, using a PTC performance model to account for the technical potential. As a result, a land suitability map is presented, where the North-West area of the country is identified as the one with more highly suitable area.
