2020.11.29 SAM Version Output Query

Hello,
Good Morning.

I am trying to simulate a PV system scenario using 590W TRINA modules for Ground Mounted Tracking System.
Looking at the set of values that I am receiving through SAM, it is essentially double the set of values on a single year basis when I try to extrapolate any of the Voc, Isc, Vmp etc. output values in SAM 2020.11.29. This was not the case in the 2018 and 2019 SAM models.

Is there a change in how the set of values in SAM are given out for a single year ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Aakar,

The SAM release notes provide information about changes between versions: nrel.github.io/SAM/doc/releasenotes.html

I'm not sure I understand what results you are comparing between the different versions. If you can provide a specific example of the differences you are seeing, I can try to help you understand them.

Best regards,
Paul.
