-    Note
-    ----
-    The PVGIS website uses 10 years of data to generate the TMY, whereas the
-    API accessed by this function defaults to using all available years. This
-    means that the TMY returned by this function may not be identical to the
-    one generated by the website. To replicate the website requests, specify
-    the corresponding 10 year period using ``startyear`` and ``endyear``.
-    Specifying ``endyear`` also avoids the TMY changing when new data becomes
-    available.
