Hello there. I'll briefly describe my problem. I want to optimize the location of a meteo station on a roof of a complex building. I designed my 3D scene and use a 1x1m PV active area to "simulate" the area of my meteo station. I don't need simulations of energy yield, but only about shading. The idea is to reduce at minimum the hours/year that the meteo station will be shaded. Now, PVsyst can simulate the position and the shading for any day of the year or any height/azimuth values. On the other hand, the shading table is not "refined" enough, i.e. I have strong shading at height 15 and azimuth 80-90 but the coefficient of the table are zero. Is there a way to choose which values should be present in the shading table? Every single value for Azimuth and Height would be nice... I need just to have this data in some format on a file, I don't need fancy visualizations interfaces... is there a way to know for how many hours the shade is present? Another question, is it possible to run a batch simulation where the location of the PV active area is changing?

Hi there. As you said "Already asked by many users ! " but still there is no progress in that direction.... do you have an update about this highly requested feature?

Dear André, do you have some news about the availability of Tigo technology modeling in PVsyst? Thanks in advance! Alex Masolin

Dear all, I'd like to simulate a system comprising Power Optimizers (one every two modules) and Power-One string inverters. In total, one roof and 3 orientations. I can see that only SolarEdge Power Optimizers are implemented (WHY?) and in "read-only" mode. Unfortunately, my Power Optimizers are from another brand (i.e. Tigo). I don't see any reason why PVsyst can't simulate them as the architecture is the same for the SolarEdge case, but with different electrical parameters... Can you help me? Thanks in advance and regards, Alex Masolin
