In design PV (photovoltaic) system, there are many important factors to consider for best site selection. It is essential to understand to know the amount of sunlight available and how to minimize the shadings. This study presents basic concepts for understanding sun’s position and insolation. also it gives easy tools for topography analysis. Finally, this study shows some theoretical calculations of power generation losses by topographic obstacle's elevations and disadvantages in economic feasibility, that is about 7million won loss per year for case of 10 degree topography elevation with assuming average Korea's topography elevation as 5 degree.
