It is based on the well-validated python-pvlib, but offers a user-friendly GUI based on Excel (also a CLI with JSON input). SoDeLe can simulate PV systems with parameters from real PV modules and inverters with different orientations. Alternatively, preset standard modules and a constant DC-AC efficiency can be selected. The database of parameters contains more than 35,000 PV modules from various manufacturers. The simulation is based on a weather file, which can be either an EWP file (EnergyPlus Weather File) or a .dat file from the German Weather Service (DWD). With SoDeLe, the energy yield of planned or existing photovoltaic systems can be determined quickly and easily in high temporal resolution without much expert knowledge. The results can be used for dynamic energy system simulations, storage sizing or dynamic cost and greenhouse gas calculations. In addition, different orientations and different PV modules and inverters can be analyzed or the energy yield of existing systems can be checked if real historical weather data is used as input. The results of SoDeLe were verified for different module-inverter configurations, orientations and locations using comparative simulations with the commercial software PV*SOL and with the annual totals calculated by PVGIS.
