This extensive study examines the solar rooftop photovoltaic potential (RTP) over polluted cities in major geographic and economic zones of India. The climatology radiation attenuation due to aerosol, clouds, architectural effects, etc. exploits earth observations from ground, satellite, radiative transfer modeling (RTM) conjunction with information systems tools. long-term cloud properties Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) satellites operated by EUMETSAT aerosol data gathered ground-based measurements provided AERONET. innovation is defined two steps. Firstly, we estimated RTP using current state art field, which involved suitability factors energy output based on PVGIS simulations extrapolating these for effective areas cities. Secondly, advanced beyond incorporating roof morphological characteristics various area share assess more realistic terms. These steps were applied under different scenarios. determined that optimum tilt angle equal cities’ latitude installing PV systems. In addition, research emphasizes advantages environment while offering losses. According our findings, rural city examined this 31% greater than urban India both has found metropolitan city, boasts a maximum approximately 167 km2, could host significant around 13,005 ± 1210.71 (6970 751.38) MWh per year scenario 1 (scenario 2). Overall, losses effects dominate scale. Amongst all cities, financial aerosols, shadows are 11,241.70 million, 4439 1167.65 million rupees, respectively. Our findings emphasize necessity accounting air pollution accurate assessments thoughtful planning. creative approach utilizes publicly available establishes strong foundation penetrating (PV) technology into society. integration significantly contribute climate change mitigation adaptation efforts, promoting environmentally sustainable development prevention strategies.
