Abstract: Over the last five years several European countries have experienced a rapid development of photovoltaic power plants. In the Czech Republic more than 20,000 new photovoltaic power plants have been built with the total nominal power capacity of 2100 MWp. The spatial distribution of these installations is very uneven. Built-up areas are dominated by a large number of small installations while large installations (over 1 MWp) are usually located in agricultural areas. To express a spatial distribution of these installations we have used a synthetic approach combining the spatial density of installations with the power plant capacities. The resulting map in the scale of 1:750,000 shows a continuous distribution of the installed power capacity.
