Hello, I am a new user of NREL SAM. I am looking to generate synthetic hourly solar PV farm (100MW/150MW, any rating will work) production/forecast data situated in Alberta. Please point me to links/tutorials on how to get started. I appreciate your help.

Hi Shubhrajit,

Watching the videos listed here is one good starting place:

sam.nrel.gov/photovoltaic/pv-videos.html

You can also find a Getting Started and Reference section in SAM's Help system that is useful for learning to use the model.

Best regards,
Paul.
