Note about the PHOTON simulation software survey - 2011 (English) Note sur le comparatif de programmes de simulation PV de PHOTON (French) André Mermoud, University of Geneva, June 2011 |
The PHOTON laboratory has analyzed and tested about 20 softwares available on the market for the study of PV system yields. This analysis was published in several editions of PHOTON Magazine (that are in German and Spanish see April 2011, in Italian and French see May 2011). PHOTON has used 3 monitored PV installations for the assessment of the yield prediction of each program. Yet we found that the reference irradiance data were not well measured, and this casts doubt on PHOTON's conclusions. |
