I would need more specifics on the weather files to be able to tell whether they are the cause for the change. Julien's comment says that the runs were done using the 2014 ISHRAE and 2013 ISHRAE weather files for Jaipur. As far as I know, there have been only two versions of ISHRAE weather files - the first set in 2009 and a second set in 2014. I helped in recalculating the solar radiation for the first set, and was responsible for producing the second set. The solar in the first set were calculated "blind", but for the second set I had a more refined approach and was also able to calibrate the results against satellite-derived solar from NREL. Therefore, I'm more comfortable with the solar on the second (2014) set. I'm not sure what was meant by the 2013 ISHRAE weather file.
