The weather data downloaded from the JRC website is causing an error with SAM version 2018.11.11.
If you ignore the error, the simulation will crash.

Hello,

Thank you for letting us know.

Could you [url=mailto t=_self]email me[/url] a copy of a weather file that causes that problem?

Best regards,

Hi again,

I replicated the simulation error by downloading an EPW file from the PVGIS V5 TMY generator at:

re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvg_tools/en/tools.html#TMY

You can fix the problem by using a text editor to open the EPW file and adding a line at the very end of the file.

We will sort that out in SAM and fix it in the next update.

Thanks again for pointing out the problem.

Best regards,
Paul.
