Combining SAM with user-defined scripts

Hi Paul,

I'm writing to see if you could provide an update on the topics we discussed here. In particular:
-In a PV modeling workshop last Fall, it was mentioned that the SAM source code would be made available some time in the coming summer, roughly. I wanted to check: is that still the plan?

-If/when this is done, will it be easy to "switch out" or add different models than the ones currently used in SAM?

-Are there any plans to make the "module losses" category more granular? (Our clients have come to expect the level of detail provided in PVsyst)

By the way: I was happy to see that (linear) self-shading is now included for single-axis trackers, that's nice :) Would it be easy to add it for 2-axis trackers?

Dear Paul,

Thanks for the quick reply! Regarding the module losses, are there any plans to add granularity to that? If not: do you think this would be "doable" given the current code structure?

Best regards,
Sophie

Thanks for your response Paul. I'll think about best ways to do that on my end as well!
Sophie
