Bifacial factor

[Madusanka]

Hello , 

i am trying to perform a calculation with a bifacial panels for car port system where i have 2 different orientations , azimuths. In order to enable bifacial factor to my simulation ,how shall i move forward ???

Hello!

Sorry at the moment it is not possible to simulate a variant with multiple orientations and the bifacial model.
For a carport, if the orientations are not too different, I would suggest running a variant with a single orientation (the average one) to at least get an approximation for the bifacial gain. This will complement a “monofacial” simulation run with the 2 orientations.
