I will analyse solar panel soiling and energy loss
Renewable Energy Consultant, Solar and Feasibility Expert
About this Gig
Anyone can export a PVsyst PDF. What you actually need is a design you can defend.
I am an energy systems engineer working in solar PV modelling and hybrid microgrid optimisation.
WHAT YOU GET
- Panel layout: module and inverter selection, string sizing, tilt, azimuth, row pitch
- PVsyst 8760-hour simulation and the official PVsyst PDF report
- Energy yield: annual and monthly output, specific yield, performance ratio, full loss diagram
- 3D scene with near and far shading analysis
- Material takeoff and editable PVsyst source files
- Every assumption stated, so your numbers survive review

FAQ
What do you need from me to start?
Site coordinates (or address), your target system size or energy demand, module and inverter models if you have preferences, tilt/azimuth or roof layout, and electricity/diesel tariff. If you only have the location, I can propose a sensible design and confirm it with you before simulating.
I don't have a load profile. Can you still do it?
Yes. I build 8760-hour hourly load profiles from monthly bills, connected-equipment lists, or typical operating schedules, and I separate critical from non-critical load for off-grid studies.
Which weather data do you use?
Meteonorm 8, PVGIS, NASA POWER or a TMY file you supply. I state the source and the P50 assumption in the report so your results are defensible.
Can you model soiling and dust losses?
Yes — that is a specialty. I model soiling as monthly loss factors or as a CSV time series with a rainfall reset threshold, and I deliver a clean-vs-soiled comparison showing the annual energy and revenue impact.
Do I get the editable project files?
Included in Premium,or add the "Editable source files" extra to Basic/Standard. You receive the PVsyst.PRJ, the Excel workbook and any MATLAB scripts.
Can you help with my thesis or final-year project?
Yes. I provide the simulation, results and a technical write-up with IEEE-formatted references and figures you can build on. I do not sit exams or submit work on your behalf.
