Maunil and all,
What I've been trying to email you the last few days is that you can
verify the PV model by running it over a few years and then comparing
the output to the prediction from PVWatts. If they don't match, we can
scale the average of Aaron's model to match PVWatts and then let it
fluctuate around that value.
So, if Aaron's model predicts daily generation of 2-10 KWh with an
average of 7 (random numbers) but PVWatts says that the average should
be 8, then we know that a prediction of 7 should have been 8, therefore
we should add 12.5% to all predictions. It's not great, but it will get
us in the right ballpark.
