%X the objective of this study was to estimate the potential of solar energy through the variation of the global solar radiation (gsr) in the state of amap¨¢ during two season's cycle (2006 to 2008). gsr historical time series were used from four collection data platforms (pcd's) distributed in a central area of the state. the results indicated that the distribution of rsg showed annual peak of about 4900wh.m-2.day-1 on the macap¨¢ station, due to its proximity to the equator line. at serra do navio, pacu¨ª and oiapoque cities the values observed were 4000, 4400 and 3800wh.m-2.day-1, respectively. we conclude that the studied sites in amap¨¢ state have significant potential for photovoltaic use during a complete annual cycle. the potential for generating electricity proved to be attractive, both for use in traditional urban systems and in isolated systems in remote communities.
