Dear Johnny, First of all, in a self-consumption + storage system, the system responds to the user's load. So, if you have a small load profile and a large PV system, excess energy will be injected into the grid. Since I don’t know your exact goal, I suggest creating multiple variants — starting with fewer PV modules, then trying with higher storage capacity. This will give you different results and help you find the best configuration. Regards,

Making a 3D Scene plotting accordance with Topo
Muhammed Sarikaya replied to Stewart's topic in How-to
Dear Stewart, In the Near Shading tool, you need to draw your 3D scene manually — it is not generated automatically. I suggest watching our tutorial related to near shadings: Regards -
orientation Pamareters Pvsyt 8
Muhammed Sarikaya replied to mohamed abdelkader's topic in Shadings and tracking
Dear, See my example below on how to proceed: Click Orientation Management: Then, select the orientation you want to delete and delete it, as shown below: Regards, -
Dear Nikoloz, You have to find a way to extract the three coordinate points (X, Y, and Z) of your 3D object and save them as a CSV file. This way, PVsyst will accept the CSV file as topography. Regards,

Dear Laura, Thank you for reaching out to us. First of all, we will replace "Ageing" with "Aging." Regarding the manufacturer's lower limit guarantee, you can see it clearly in the graph below: The sentence states that the module warranty represents the lower limit in reference to this graph, where it shows the loss of efficiency. It compares the black curve, which represents the module warranty, with the calculated aging curve, showing that the warranty curve has a higher efficiency loss than the calculated degradation. Therefore, the sentence in the help documentation is correct in relation to this graph. Regards,

Dear Emily, I don't understand what you mean by "how can I assign specific modules from the 3D model to these two orientations." I also don't understand how you can have 3,480 strings in one orientation and 699 strings in the other when you have defined a total of 35 strings. You must distribute the 35 strings between the two orientations. I don't know how you defined the 3D scene, but you need to check which modules correspond to which orientation. PVsyst will automatically assign the number of modules based on the orientations you have defined. Regards,

Dear, Indeed, both of your options provide good results. Thank you for the advice. I will take note of it in our roadmap. Regards,

Different strings in the same inverter Pnom sharing
Muhammed Sarikaya replied to Alejandro's topic in How-to
Dear Alejandro, Unfortunately, what you are trying to do is not possible. Maybe you can approximate it by having the last two strings with the same number of modules in series. Regards, -
Dear Afshin, It's not possible to do that. Regards,

Error for two orientation when imprting PVcase PVC file
Muhammed Sarikaya replied to ShivamPandey's topic in Problems / Bugs
Dear Zoe, In the system section, you need to create a sub-array for the second orientation and define it. It is also important to assign it to the second orientation. Regards, -
Dear Bakhtiyar, This parameter is a threshold for the RMS value of the pitch distribution that PVsyst finds in the 3D drawing. The bifacial models in PVsyst are an approximation that is valid for identical long rows with constant pitch (spacing). If the simulation uses a 3D drawing of the PV system, then PVsyst will check if this drawing comes close to this idealization. For this purpose, it will calculate the RMS of the pitch distribution, and if it finds a value larger than the threshold, it will issue an error message, and the simulation will not be possible. The default value of 0.1 m is not based on a specific study. The error message is meant to remind the user that the system which is being simulated, is not fully compatible with the idealized assumptions, and therefore an additional uncertainty of the bifacial contribution in the simulation results is to be expected. So far there is no study that quantifies the increase of uncertainty in the simulation results as a function of the RMS of the pitch distribution. It will become possible to address this, once we have a more sophisticated bifacial model, which will be based on the 3D drawing. This is in work and will still require several months of development. Regards,
