Pvsamv1¶

Wrapper for SAM Simulation Core model: cmod_pvsamv1.cpp

Creating an Instance¶

There are three methods to create a new instance of a PySAM module. Using default populates the newclass’ attributes with default values specific to a config. Each technology-financialconfiguration corresponds to a SAM GUI configuration. Using new creates an instance with empty attributes. The wrap function allows compatibility with PySSC, for details, refer to PySSC.

Pvsamv1 model description
