Spectrafy is proud to introduce the iSG Integrated Spectrum Generator for the SolarSIM-GPV. The iSG is a weatherized processing unit that enables output of processed data from the SolarSIM-GPV (global irradiance, spectral correction factors) directly to an onsite data logger. The iSG eliminates the need for additional processing hardware or software, thereby enabling seamless integration of the SolarSIM-GPV into PV met stations. See the iSG Specification Sheet here.

SolarSIM-G data now online at NREL
The Solar Radiation Research Laboratory at NREL has recently added a SolarSIM-G to their Mesa Top facility where it will contribute to their state-of-the-art solar spectral measurement capabilities.
Data from the SolarSIM-G is now accessible online for anyone to view and download here.
NREL has also operated a SolarSIM-D2 since 2016 and its data can be viewed and downloaded here.
Welcome to the new Spectrafy website!
We have been busy during the pandemic updating our website to more effectively represent our company. You will find a new look, a number of new products including the SolarSIM-GPV, the SolarSIM-3C and our ST-5 Sun Tracker. In addition the site is packed with more indepth information about the products we offer. Enjoy!

Spectrafy to present the latest in irradiance measurement at PVSC-47
Be sure to sign in to the upcoming 2020 IEEE PVSC-47 Virtual Meeting to hear Spectrafy’s CTO, Viktar Tatsiankou, talk about our latest work in three-component irradiance measurement. His award-nominated talk, entitled: Improved Global Irradiance Decomposition by Sky Condition Classification from Measured Spectral Clearness Indices, will explore how we are able to leverage the SolarSIM-Gs spectral data to extract not just global irradiance, but diffuse and direct irradiance components as well – all from a single Class A sensor with no moving parts. Just one more exciting example of the power of Spectrafy’s multi-spectral measurement approach. Congrats to Viktar and his team!

Check out editorial in North American Clean Energy, March/April 2020
Check out our article in North American Clean Energy’s March/April 2020 issue. In it, Spectrafy CEO, Richard Beal, details why spectral uncertainty is inherent to the PV industry and how modern spectral pyranometers are enabling PV plant owners to routinely eliminate this increasingly important blindspot.
