TMY

Min & Max Temperature

The typical Minimum and Maximum Dry Bulb Temperature profiles are usually not included in a TMY !

Pending completion

The TMY engine is pending completion to include the following variables : diffuse horizontal irradiance_, infrared radiation downwards_, wind direction_ and surface pressure.

pvgis-prototype can calculate the Typical Meteorological Year for a given location based on multi-annual set of solar irradiance

Temperature Variables¶

Typical Minimum Dry Bulb Temperature — TMY Minimum Dry Bulb Temperature from ERA5 reanalysis data

Typical Yearly Mean Dry Bulb Temperature — TMY Mean Dry Bulb Temperature at 2m height from ERA5

Typical Yearly Maximum Dry Bulb Temperature — TMY Maximum Dry Bulb Temperature showing peak daily values

Humidity and Wind¶

Typical Yearly Mean Relative Humidity — TMY Mean Relative Humidity derived from ERA5 dewpoint and temperature data

Typical Yearly Wind Speed — TMY Mean Wind Speed at 10m height from ERA5 reanalysis
