Kudos on finding our first bug!!

I wonder if it has something to do with the white spaces.. it saves "Prism Solar" but the Json has "Prism_Solar". Maybe while we fix this try using one word, or no spaces or dashes instead of spaces?

In bifacial repo is there any flat mirror or curve mirrors are using for reflection

There is mirror material on Radiance, or you can define a new material on bifacial radiance with very high reflectivity (addMaterial function).

The material can be defined for a flat surface or curved one, but specially for the curved surface you are going to have to go into the documentation of Radiance to find the right call and examples. Alternatively you could import a CAD. Our makeModule and makeScene support appended objects (code or cads), but not in the GUI.

Hope this helps
