Monthly temperature lower than internal limit

[Stoveland]

Hi,

I am trying to do simulations of PVinstallations far North - Svalbard, Norway.

As much as I am aware of the uncertainty regarding meteo data this far North, I am running into technical issues as well.

I am trying to use meteo files at the same latitude. E.g. Alert, Canada. I get the following error in PVsyst:

"Project site Alert: insufficient or bad monthly meteo data:

January: The monthly temperature is lower than the internal limit (i.e. -30 degC)."

Is there a way to get around this? Lower temperatures than -30 should be filtered as just -30 degC if the simulations cannot be used..

I cannot generate synthetic files either because of this problem.

Help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Asbjorn

The limit for the lower temperature is defined in the Hidden parameters, topic "Miscellaneous: Meteo, Simulation, ... ", item "Lower limit for monthly temperatures".
