Import horizon files

[Sondre207]

Hello,

I want to use the horizon in PVGIS (see image), as there is no method of getting that in PVSOL...?

 

I was wondering if there was any way to convert .csv or .json -files to .hor that is used in PVSOL?

Thank you in advance, your help is much appreciated

Hi Sondre207,

first of all: The import of PVGIS horizons will be a built-in feature in the upcoming major release, PV*SOL premium 2022 R1, due this autumn/winter.

In the meantime you can simply open the exported csv file in Excel or any other spreadsheet software, and add 180 to the azimut values in another column, like so:

 

Then you can just copy the azimuth and the elevation column (B and C in this example here), and paste it into the horizon table in PV*SOL:

 

Hope that helps, kind regards,

Martin
