We generate accurate and representative typical years for any place on earth. You can choose from more than 30 different weather parameters.
Our database consists of all over the world point weather climatic information, five geostationary satellites and a globally calibrated aerosol climatology. On this basis, sophisticated interpolation models, provide results with high accuracy worldwide. More than 30 different output climate file formats offer maximum flexibility. All this file formats are accurately used in solar energy applications, building design, heating & cooling systems, education, agriculture, forestry and many more.
