You can access the WRDC data, using this NASA site, and easily import them in PVsyst:

-  Go to the NASA site     http://eosweb.larc.nasa.gov/sse

- Click    "Ground Sites",  and then  "Monthly Plots".

- You will be prompted for registration with your e-mail address and a password (free).

- Here you have 2 possibilities:

- Either you choose geographic coordinates, and the nearest site will be selected,

- Or you select a country, and then a site in the country.

- Select the   Monthly Averages item  (other ones are daily values).

The required data will appear, along with the geographic coordinates.

- Select the data from the  Country name to the bottom of the table, and copy  (Ctl-C) into the clipboard.

Come back to PVsyst,   "Tools" / "Import Meteo Data" / "WRDC",  press "Import" and follow the instructions in red.

As they are not included in the WRDC data, you will be prompted to define the monthly temperatures from another source.
