pvlib.location.Location.get_solarposition¶

Location.get_solarposition(times, pressure=None, temperature=12, **kwargs)[source]¶

Uses the pvlib.solarposition.get_solarposition() function to calculate the solar zenith, azimuth, etc. at this location.

Parameters

times (pandas.DatetimeIndex) – Must be localized or UTC will be assumed.
pressure (None, float, or array-like, default None) – If None, pressure will be calculated using pvlib.atmosphere.alt2pres() and self.altitude.
temperature (None, float, or array-like, default 12) –
kwargs – passed to pvlib.solarposition.get_solarposition()

Returns

solar_position (DataFrame) – Columns depend on the method kwarg, but always include zenith and azimuth.
