Hello,
Does SAM have the ability to generate TMY files to a set confidence interval? I suppose these wouldn't be typical (P50) anymore, but the point is to represent with a single 8760 hourly file the solar + weather resource to a particular level. It would have all of the same compromises and utility as a standard TMY file.
I understand the purpose and methodology behind the empirical distributions for energy production using the longterm time series. This is a different product. I've noted that SolarGIS has this available for purchase. For reference, they discuss some of the considerations here:
core.ac.uk/download/pdf/82476971.pdf
I have access to longterm timeseries and I would like to generate these myself from that data. Any thoughts, methods, or packages on GitHub that someone could point me to? Or, is there source code available that generates the regular TMY files that can be modified?
Thanks!
