Alain Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 How are the losses due to ageing of the modules taken into account in the simulation please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
developer_mh Posted March 10, 2023 Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 Hi Alain, the module ageing losses (=degradation) are taken into account in the economic calculation only. The energy yield simulation is conducted for the first year only, without module ageing losses. You can refer to the energy balance after the simulation in order to see which losses are accounted for: https://help.valentin-software.com/pvsol/en/pages/results/energy-balance/ Hope that helps, kind regards, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Posted March 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 Thank you Martin. I would like to know the degradation loss percentage considered every year by the software and if this is a value that can be edited by the user, please.

developer_mh Posted March 10, 2023 Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 Hi Alain, yes, the module degradation can be edited by the user: https://help.valentin-software.com/pvsol/en/pages/pv-modules/module-degradation/ Kind regards, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Posted March 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 There is no PV Modules menu in my model with a 3D design. How to reach these parameters in this case please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
developer_mh Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hi Alain, if you have a 3d project, the module degradation is accessible here: Kind regards, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
