This project analyzes solar radiation data for Benin, Sierra Leone, and Togo to uncover trends in irradiance, wind, temperature, and sensor quality. It helps identify ideal locations for sustainable solar installations by MoonLight Energy Solutions.
Solar Farm Data Analysis
Overview
The aim of this analysis is to uncover key insights from the solar radiation data for the regions of Benin, Sierra Leone, and Togo. By identifying trends and patterns in solar irradiance, wind conditions, temperature variations, and sensor data quality, the analysis will guide MoonLight Energy Solutions in determining high-potential regions for solar installations that align with the company's sustainability goals.. The results are presented through an interactive Streamlit dashboard

Project Structure
The repository is organized as follows:
app/main.py: The main script for the Streamlit application. This script loads the data, performs analysis, and renders the interactive dashboard.
requirements.txt: Lists the Python dependencies required to run the project, including libraries such as pandas, numpy, matplotlib, seaborn, scipy, and streamlit.
README.md: Provides an overview of the project, setup instructions, and details about the Streamlit dashboard.
Streamlit Dashboard
Streamlit is an open-source app framework for creating data-driven web applications in Python. In this project, we use Streamlit to create an interactive dashboard that allows users to explore the solar farm data. The dashboard includes several features:
Data Previews: Display the first few rows of the datasets for Benin, Sierra Leone, and Togo.
Summary Statistics: Show descriptive statistics for the datasets, including measures of central tendency and variability.
Missing Values: Identify and display the number of missing values in each dataset.
Outlier Detection: Detect and display outliers in the Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) values using the Z-score method.
Visualizations:
Time Series Plots: Visualize the temporal patterns of GHI.
Correlation Heatmaps: Explore the relationships between solar parameters like GHI, DNI, a …
