Hi David,
Welcome back to the world of renewables.
That message is caused by the value of the monthly abledo input variable having the wrong number of values, which I think is caused by the way defaults are set up behind the scenes.
To fix the problem:
1. Go to the Location and Resource page, and expand the "Albedo - Sky Diffuse Model - Irradiance Data (Advanced)" panel.
2. Under "Albedo" click Edit values and then click OK. Be sure to click OK and not Cancel so that SAM stores the 12 values in the table to the variable.
Now you should be able to run REopt from the Battery Cell and System page, and the simulation should run without an error about albedo. Please let me know if that does not work.
Did you create this file with an older version of SAM and then open it in SAM 2021.12.02?
Best regards,
Paul.
