PV Alpine¤

Introduction¤

This technology was incorporated by Fischer (2023)1 to represent the planned alpine PV parks in the Swiss Alps.

Due to a favorable weather at high altitude, Alpine PV present a better exposition especially during winter months.

This technology should only be used in CH EnergyScope

ES Model Parameters¤

All the parameters concerning the PV Alpine are listed in the table below.
