Hi Eli,

Please try using the Solar Resource File Converter macro to convert the file to the SAM CSV format as described in these posts:

sam.nrel.gov/forum/forum-general/3133

Dear Pual
Thanks

I completed stage 1 t o5, and when I go to Location and Resource is not recognize any file and not the samcsv!
What should I do?

Click Run macro. This will create a new SAM CSV file with the same name as the EPW format with "_samcsv" appended.
5. Go to the Location and Resource page and choose the SAM CSV version of your EPW file.
6. Click Simulate to run a simulation.

Hi Eli,

SAM will not add a file to the solar resource library if it detects a problem with the file.

Please be sure to download files in the EPW format from the PVGIS website (re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvg_tools/en/tools.html#TMY) as demonstrated in this video: youtu.be/G3fXoL_OvU4?t=2158 .

Best regards,
Paul.
