HOMER Pro Modules
HOMER Pro can be supplemented with additional modules for even more powerful modeling capabilities. Offering individual modules for sale benefits our users in two ways:
- It allows us to keep the price of the software affordable while greatly enhancing the product, and
- It simplifies the interface — customers will not see features that they do not require.

Biomass
Allows users to model biomass gasification and biogas-fueled or cofired generators. It adds the biomass resource, the biogas fuel, and the biogas-fueled or biogas cofired generator.
Hydro
Adds the hydro resource and the hydro component. Users can specify the stream flow in the Hydro resource, either as monthly values or as an imported time series. Ideal for systems that include conventional, small, or micro hydroelectricity generation.
Combined Heat and Power
For users who model building heating systems. Types of systems could include boilers, cogeneration, heat recovery, and any system that demands or supplies heat energy.
Advanced Load
Users who create models with both AC and DC loads, or who want to model deferrable loads such as pumping or HVAC, should use the Advanced Load module.
Advanced Grid
For users who will model grid-connected systems with varying grid prices, detailed grid specification, or off-grid systems where grid extension is a possibility.
Hydrogen
Allows users to model systems that generate, store, and consume hydrogen. It is ideal for users who model fuel cells, remote off-grid operations, large industrial processes, or any system with hydrogen production, storage, or consumption.
Advanced Storage
Unlocks the Modified Kinetic Battery Model (MKBM) in HOMER. The MKBM includes rate-dependent losses, changes in capacity with temperature, variable depth-of-discharge for cycle life, and increased degradation rate at higher temperatures.
Multi-Year
Allows users to model changes that can occur over the course of a project, such as PV degradation, grid price escalation, load growth, and fuel price escalation.
MATLAB Link
Allows users to write their own dispatch algorithm in MATLAB, which will integrate with the HOMER Pro software.
