SOLAR & SERVICES / SOMALIA

Your energy. Let’s work it out.

Your appliances, space and operating hours. Turn them into a clearer plan for production, storage and cost.

SOMALIA / PROJECT LOCATION

Where does your energy begin?

Choose a city or locate your project on the Somalia map. The location helps explain your request; a roof survey is still needed.

Your roof. Your potential.

Enter the area manually. This is a layout estimate; access paths, shading and structural suitability need a site survey.

Refine the assumptions

Set the solar resource for your location, then check the equipment assumptions against the products you plan to install.

Solar data for your location

Use a long-term solar estimate from NASA POWER to set your peak sun hours.

NASA
POWER

Select a city or map location first.

Choose your project location

When you request data, coordinates rounded to 0.1° are sent to NASA POWER. The solar data grid is about 1° × 1°.

Satellite-derived, long-term solar energy on a horizontal surface. It is not live weather or a roof survey; panel tilt, orientation and local shade are not included. About NASA solar data

Catalog specifications follow step 04. Choose Custom specification there to edit these values manually.

Peak sun hours / day

Equivalent hours at full sunlight, not daylight hours. NASA supplies a long-term horizontal-surface estimate.PV system losses

20% is a planning allowance for heat, soiling, wiring and upstream conversion. Adjust for the system design.Panel power

Use the module’s rated maximum power (Pmax / Wp) from its label or datasheet.Area per panel

m²

Module length × width in metres. The roof’s available percentage allows for access and spacing.Usable battery capacity

Usable share of the rated battery capacity. Check permitted depth of discharge and the reserve setting.Battery inverter efficiency

Use battery-to-AC inverter efficiency at the expected load, from the manufacturer’s datasheet.

PV losses cover temperature, wiring and upstream system losses. Exclude battery-inverter discharge losses here: they are applied separately to nighttime energy, PV sizing and battery runtime.

5.5 h / day · Unverified solar input. Choose your location and use NASA data above, or enter a documented local value.

Your system. Your budget.

Compare what solar can cover, then choose the equipment behind your plan.

Include published reference pricesOn

International equipment references are planning benchmarks, not a COSOB quotation. Transport, import charges and local installation are excluded unless the cited offer explicitly includes them. An approved COSOB price takes priority.

Electrical supply

Check the supply shown on your utility documents or ask your installer. Three-phase sizing treats each listed device as single-phase; circuit allocation and phase balance need confirmation.

Daytime solar use80%

Generation used at the same time as demand80%

An editable timing assumption for the no-battery option. Solar that is not used at the time is not counted as coverage or savings. This is not weather data.

Build your equipment list

Choose a suggested fit, compare brands, or enter a custom specification. Approved prices and optional published references are shown separately.

Preliminary equipment candidates. The energy balance does not validate a working circuit. Confirm PV string startup/MPPT voltage, current limits, phase balance and battery BMS before installation. Published PV power limits are applied where available; unknown limits still need review.

Compare published Somalia market examples and regional or international candidates. This is a researched catalog, not a live inventory or an exhaustive list of every product.
