1. A computer processor implemented method of calibrating photovoltaic model parameters to improve modeling accuracy of photovoltaic power production, said method comprising the steps of:

  • obtaining in a computer processor environmental conditions representative of at least one photovoltaic system being analyzed;

    obtaining in a computer processor measured power of each photovoltaic system being analyzed;

    estimating by the computer processor a power output for each photovoltaic system being analyzed according to the environmental conditions representative of each photovoltaic system being analyzed to provide a modeled power;

    comparing by the computer processor the modeled power and the measured power of each photovoltaic system being analyzed to provide a set of ratio data points;

    filtering by the computer processor the set of ratio data points that are statistical outliers to provide a filtered set of ratio data points;

    identifying by the computer processor a most statistically representative ratio for the filtered set of ratio data points to provide a calibrated modeled photovoltaic power production.
