PV*SOL

Hello, i want to design an off grid system inside an on grid system because my load will be just 6 electric cars and my system capacitat will be 35,5 kWp with a battery system so the question is i dont want to feed the extra power to the grid because the company is in a private grid and they cant feed the grid and I need just to get electricity from the grid when the pv system does not produce enough electricity and when the battery is empty too is it possible to do that on the software. pv project.pvprj

Hi How can I divide the batteries into more than one inverter because in the program I can choose the number of batteries I want for the system and which inverter I want to connect, so what is the solution to divide them into more than one inverter? Thanks in advance

Hi, I have severall questions in connection with your calculations for PV systems + battery storage systems for own consumption + sell to the grid: How IRR of Capital Resources is calculated (please specify formula which PVSol is using)? How Electricity Production Costs are calculated (please specify formula which PVSol is using)? Battery Charge (Grid) (in Simulation Results, Battery System section) – Can you set up PVSol in such a way that it charges battery over the specific time (eg. in the night)? If yes -> how? If not -> what this parameter shows? Service Life (Simulation Results, Battery System section) – what does it mean? …

Hi Has anyone managed to use 3D imagery from Google EarthPro into suitable conversion for PVSOL 2018 to accept in 3D import? Have played around with a few other free mapping tools but does not model roofs like GoogleEarth Pro. Thanks

Hello, I'm trying to downlaod a 3d model, but when I open it on PVSOL, my building is not on the right direction. PVSOL gives me only one orientation which is: the x,y plan. There is any method so I can put it in the right plane ? Thank you for your help !

Hi, Information about The Trina Vertex TSM DE19 has been available for a while now and the module still isnt available in the database. Is it possible to get Trina to push this module asap? (Primarely 540 W's, which looks to be the most common produced). We have tried to get a export from PVsyst through import of a .pan file, but isnt all clear to get that right. If possible, the Vertex TSM-DE20 also is of interest. Best Regards Daniel MA_Datasheet_Vertex_DE19_202011.pdf MA_Datasheet_Vertex_DE20_202011.pdf

Hi, I am interested in how battery works in PVSOL, i.e. when is it charging, when is it discharging(in reference to time or pv energy available to load value at the same time), can we set the charge/discharge time etc. Best regards, Faruk

Bonjour je n'arrive pas à mettre mon numéro de série dans la nouvelle version

Dear all, I am currently learning and testing you program for a university purposes and I came to a question regarding the tarrif set up. I will try to describe my problem: I draw the PV plant + added the yearly 1h measurements as a load profile + added the storage system. The load profile is quity constant during the night and day. The PV plant should be used, partly for self-consumption (high efficiency hidrolysis) and the overproduced production should be storeg in battery storage or sold to the grid - when battery is full. From this reason I have to define the tariffs exactly. I need to define following parameters: - the customer price (e…

I can't import 3d model file from Sketchup's export. I tried .dae, .stl, .obj,... And got the same error caution. I'm using 31 days trial version of PV*SOL Release 4 2021. Thanks & regards.

Boa tarde Toda vez que vou carregar um arquivo 3D no PVSOL,quando chega em 99% ele da um erro pra fechar o programa,e nunca consigo carregar esse arquivo

Hi! I have question about module configuration > Import 3D models. There is a drop-down list and there are three options. What do they mean? I tried check it, but I didn't see any changes. Could You help me to understand this? In the attachment I am sending the screen

Hello everyone i want to update pvsol trail version but i do not know where to do it they give me notfication but i am not getting it now my autoupdate is active using 2021 version and 3 days are left thanks

Hi, In YouTube tutorials I have seen you have been using recorded weather data. The thing that interests me is that if it is possible to input weather forecast data, and if it is possible, how should it be done. Best regards

Hi, I have 2 issues with csv format. 1. How must look like csv file to load for consumption graphic. I can't find any example of csv consumption file. 2. From PVGIS page you can download only CSV radiance data. But in PVSOL you need .dat, .xlm or .wbv format. How convert CSV format to any of this three. Thank you, Dominykas

Hello, In France it is possible to sell its electricity as a producer and also possible for self-consumption with resale of surplus. My question would be you it possible to create a solar power plant of 100 Kwp composed of 36 Kwc in self-consumption plus resale of surplus and at the same time a solar power plant in total sale of 64 Kwp, on the same project. A project like this one would have two distinct prices, self-consumption plus resale of surplus at 10 cents, and a second total sale price at 0.0976 euro per Watt Thank you for your answers Patrice

Hi, I am planning to order student version of your software for a research, so I started researching what could be done in PVSOL. Could you do some short video or a detailed written explanation on making horizon line in 3D?

Hi, Do you consider to implement export/import cad files into PVSOL (2D look will be enough). It will be helpful with a making project map dokumentation. Now its impossible to keep scale and good quality on base map for design purposes by import images of dwg filies and then capture it by screenshot Kind regards Pawel

How can i design an offgrid system with a diesel genset without batteries?

Hi, I am using the PVSol Trial for 30 days and when I use the location: country Spain, region "A Coruña" it is missing. I dont know if it is only in the trial version or also in the regular version. I would like to clarify if this incidence is also in the regular version to make decision of buying this or not. By the way, I just counted the number of Provinces in Spain and in the software are included 37 and in Spain exits 50. If you want to contact me for a call my number is: 0034 640366765. I can speak a little bit german in case you prefer to use this language to comunicate and also to find a colaboration. Best regards, Lucía Varela

I think that there is a mistake on: Electrical data - other Change in Efficiency when Input Voltage deiates from Rated Voltage in %/100V Picture in attachment in other KTL-M1 there is 0,18

I have done two projects and want to compare them. Even if all values are shown correctly in each separate project in the simulation they dont show up in the comparison file. For example pv generator output or number of pv modules.

Hi, with the latest revision (R4) I have noticed that when I try to create a new weather location using the ZIP code search (PLZ), I no longer have an indication of weather stations with available weather data in the region as I previously had in R3. Is this intentional?

hola a todos, soy de la ciudad de Cali, Colombia; actual mente e adquirido una licencia para PVsol premium y la e instalado en mi pc portátil pero quiero que también me funcione en mi pc de escritorio, claro esta que no funcionar al mismo tiempo pero si que se pueda usar en el uno o en el otro ; quien me puede colaborar gracias.

Building location Project Flat roof with east-west PV modules We want the PV modules to follow the building, but the building is not located directly to the north / south, ie it is inclined to the east-west (see picture). And when you insert the PV modules, they are placed east-west by default. So how do we rotate / rotate the direction of the modules so that they follow the building / roof?
