====== Solar thermal capacity factor ====== The calculation of the capacity factor for [[d_solar|solar thermal]] is based on the SPF model [[#References|[1]]] with radiation data from the village of Verbier. It has been assumed that the mean temperature of the water inside the pannel is 40°C. ===== References ===== [1] John A. Duffie, William A.
