Resumen
In this document we present a preliminary evaluation of the Typical Meteorological Years (TMY)
dataset for Montevideo city, Uruguay, that is contained in the EnergyPlus building design software.
Global horizontal irradiation (GHI), mean, maximum and minumum temperature, relative
humidity and atmospheric pressure is considered. The time-series for these variables are compared
with long-term data from the period between the years 2000 and 2015. Temperature, relative humidity
and atmospheric pressure were measured in ground at a high-quality national conventional
meteorological station in the Carrasco area (Montevideo). Global horizontal irradiation is estimated
by satellite through a low-uncertainty model developed locally at the national Solar Energy
Laboratory (LES, UdelaR) which uses visible channel images from the GOES-East satellite. This
model has been proposed and evaluated in [1, 2, 3, 4].
