Download and extract the project. Open the `main.m`, which contains all definitions and settings to calculate the energy yield (EY) of a perovskite/c-Si multi-junction solar cell. In order to start your simulations, you need to get and add some external files, like the SAMRTS code or the TMY3 data. Please check out our [wiki page](https://github.com/PerovskitePV/EYcalc/wiki) for some help. You'll find a detailed description of each of the modules as well as a [guide](https://github.com/PerovskitePV/EYcalc/wiki/Setup) for setting up the required external files.

To use all features of the EYcalc software, *you need* to download and add some external files, like the [SMARTS](https://www.nrel.gov/grid/solar-resource/smarts-register.html) code and the [TMY3](https://nsrdb.nrel.gov/data-sets/archives.html) data. Please see our [setup guide](https://github.com/PerovskitePV/EYcalc/wiki/Setup) for help in setting up the required external files! On our [wiki page](https://github.com/PerovskitePV/EYcalc/wiki) you can also find a detailed description for each of the modules as well as a [quick start guide](https://github.com/PerovskitePV/EYcalc/wiki/Quick%20Start%20Guide).
