Evaluation.photovoltaic()

The hourly photovoltaic power is quantified via the PVlib package. Using this package, first the characteristics for a typical photovoltaic panel are defined. Based on these characteristics, the maximum power point is quantified for each hour, based on the corresponding solar irradiance and ambient temperature. Finally, the hourly power production is scaled by the considered photovoltaic array capacity.
