read_pvgis_tmy
(filename, pvgis_format=None, map_variables=None)[source]¶ Read a file downloaded from PVGIS.
- Parameters
filename (str, pathlib.Path, or file-like buffer) – Name, path, or buffer of file downloaded from PVGIS.
pvgis_format (str, default None) – Format of PVGIS file or buffer. Equivalent to the
outputformat
parameter in the PVGIS TMY API. If filename is a file and pvgis_format isNone
then the file extension will be used to determine the PVGIS format to parse. For PVGIS files from the API withoutputformat='basic'
, please set pvgis_format to'basic'
. If filename is a buffer, then pvgis_format is required and must be in['csv', 'epw', 'json', 'basic']
.map_variables (bool) – When true, renames columns of the Dataframe to pvlib variable names where applicable. See variable PVGIS_VARIABLE_MAP.
- Returns
data (pandas.DataFrame) – the weather data
months_selected (list) – TMY year for each month,
None
for basic and EPWinputs (dict) – the inputs,
None
for basic and EPWmetadata (list or dict) – file metadata,
None
for basic
- Raises
ValueError – if pvgis_format is
None
and the file extension is neither.csv
,.json
, nor.epw
, or if pvgis_format is provided as input but isn’t in['csv', 'epw', 'json', 'basic']
TypeError – if pvgis_format is
None
and filename is a buffer
