Summary: | Due to the long and narrow regional characteristics of Inner Mongolia, there are obvious climatic differences between the east and the west, and various meteorological factors have different influences on the development and utilization of solar energy. The abundance and stability index of solar energy resources are relatively high in the central and western region of Inner Mongolia, but there are more sandstorms, high temperature and strong wind. The eastern region is greatly affected by cloud cover, relative humidity and snowfall, which weakens the solar radiation. Through the comprehensive evaluation of the solar energy resources and meteorological elements, it is found that from the Alashan League to the west of Xilin Gol League, and the most of the Chifeng City are low-risk areas, which are relatively suitable for the development and utilization of rooftop solar energy. The central and northern areas of hulunbuir are high-risk areas, which is not suitable for that. Based on the meteorological industry standard “Solar Energy Resource Assessment Method”, we calculate the solar energy resources abundance and stability index, combined with the annual surface meteorological data of 119 meteorological stations in Inner Mongolia from 1988 to 2018. The distribution characteristics of solar energy resources and meteorological elements in Inner Mongolia is analyzed and the suitability and meteorological risks of rooftop solar resources development and utilization are evaluated.
