July 14, 20179 yr Is there anyone familiar with Homer energy microgrid software? I used the free version for a small simulation. It was very limited. And the sensitivity analysis was a bit weird. I don't know whether the simulation matches empirical data or not. I am a bit skeptic about it. If there is someone who has experience with it, can you confirm that the data is accurate or not, and do you recommend buying this software? If not, can you recommend another software? Thanks.

July 15, 20179 yr Author Because I hate making the measurements my self. The simulation is easier. The Homer software was recommended by my professor. But I didn't like it.
July 20, 20179 yr Homer is One of the best out there for microgrid and off grid some others are PVSyst – SAM (NREL) – free registration SolarGIS data - PlantPredict -
