Solar Pathfinder Assistant - Latest Version/Updates
Customer response to the Solar Pathfinder Assistant has been great! Not only have we received praise concerning the software's ease of use and professional-looking reports, but we have received some great suggestions for making it even better!
Version 2.0 was largely a result of customer feedback. Here is a list of added goodies for Version 2.0:
- Averages multiple analysis (4 corners of an array, etc.)
- Lists makes/models of PV panels & invertors (automatically giving DC rate/derate factors)
- CSI-EPBB compliant (CA Solar Initiative — uploads into the CSI calculator site)
Here is a list of improvements for Version 3.0:
- Draws latitude specific monthly sunpaths (i.e. SPA will draw draw monthly sunpaths for exactly 37 degrees N. Lat. — instead of depending on the average of latitude bands)
- Includes weather data for North America (Canada & USA), Europe, & Southwest Pacific (as listed in the WMO Regions 4,5 & 6 — see SPA page for listing of countries)
- Exports in: PDF, CSV, CSI website, OnGrid software, spreadsheets, etc.
