Peak sun hours a day on flat ground. Each dot is one place.
The sunniest place in Fiji is Lautoka (Western) with 5.23 peak sun hours a day on flat ground; the least sunny is Nasinu with 4.91. A 1 kWp array at its best angle makes from 1,471 kWh a year in Nasinu to 1,571 kWh in Lautoka — 1,514 kWh on average.
The best year-round tilt runs from 16° in Nasinu to 17° in Lautoka. Off-grid systems are sized for the darkest month and do better steeper, at 32° on average: at 70° that month brings 1.51 kWh per kWp a day in Labasa and 1.67 kWh in Sigatoka.
