Dear Ahmed,

It is possible to model a parabolic trough system with a building or facility electric load. To do so, choose the physical trough model and the commercial financial model. It is not possible to model a power tower system with a load, because the commercial financial model is not available for the power tower models.

If you want to use load data from HOMER in SAM, you should be able to export the data from HOMER and import it to SAM. That requires that you use either the Residential or Commercial financial model in SAM, because those models include a load.

Best regards,
Paul.
