I've done some work with creating weather files for SAM using NASA MERRA data. Feel free to contact me directly if you're interested in following this up.

Kind regards

Angus

Hi,

One way of getting free hourly solar data is SoDa (Solar Radiation Data) Platform.
But you have to transform the file format you download from SoDa in a way that SAM can read (SAM csv, TMY2, TMY3,EPW),
if you can find a quick way of doing that, you can give a try for SoDa platform.
