This video describes the steps required to add a frame onto a simple module

This is an extended version of the presentation given by Dr Keith McIntosh (PV Lighthouse) at the 2023 PVPMC workshop. It quantifies the difference between advanced and conventional models (such as those used in PVSyst, SAM and PVLib) for 8 physical mechanisms.

The study was presented at the 49th IEEE PVSC in Philadelphia 2022 and covers how module temperature depends on wind speed, wind direction and tilt and how best to model the module temperature.

This video provides an overview of the electrical solving engine, how it links to the optical solver and demonstrates the basics of setting the inputs within the user interface, running a simulation and looking at the output.

This video provides a basic introduction to the optical solving methods and concepts used in the SunSolve software.

This video explains how to use the module library in SunSolve Yield

What if solar modules were designed for real-world conditions rather than the datasheet? What if you could modify any physical feature of a solar cell or module and predict how it will behave once mounted in the field?

This video explains how to use the full module simulation feature including: defining module frames, exploring mismatch losses, estimating bifaciality

This video explains how to use the system simulation features. It is a continuation from "Solving PV Modules with SunSolve" and some knowledge from that video is assumed

Do you know how much extra yield can be gained by optimising your tracker angle? In our recent presentation at the IEEE PVSC, Dr Keith McIntosh used SunSolve to show that the optimum angle for both monofacial and bifacial panels is NOT always directly facing the sun.

This video is aimed at SunSolve version 4 users who have migrated to version 5
