Please update the PVGIS5 to PVGIS5.2

[Dawe890311]

The [iotools.get_pvgis_tmy] is old, so when you use it analysis some location, such as Peking and Shanghai, you will raise a error(HTTPError: Location out of the spatial coverage of PVGIS5), but the PVGIS5.2 have put these location into their database, so please update, thank you!

Hi @Dawe890311

By default the pvlib get_pvgis_tmy function uses the base endpoint: https://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/api/

PVGIS has yet to redirect this endpoint to the new version of the database (5.2). See previous discussions here: #1415.

In order to use the new version 5.2, the specific URL for version 5.2 needs to be specified:

import pvlib

data, months_selected, inputs, meta = pvlib.iotools.get_pvgis_tmy(
    latitude=28.965734,
    longitude=117.147418,
    url='https://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/api/v5_2/',
)
