You can try to extract data from AccuWeather - they will let you do that for a small fees and will also help you with the required scripts for data extraction.

For India, you can also contact Indian meteorological department though the last I checked, they charged a pretty sum of money. For specific locations (say, for Bhopal) may be you can approach through your Institute for cooperation and they may agree to that.

Hi, have you try to look at the following website?

Hi Naveen!

One vast resource is the EnergyPlus website: https://energyplus.net/weather

You will also find some climate databases with the ESP-r distribution: http://www.esru.strath.ac.uk/Programs/ESP-r_capabilities/climate.html

A huge database comprising measured and interpolated data is distributed by Meteonorm: http://www.meteonorm.com

You can visit this webpage:

https://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=India&hdf=1

I thnk you´ll find what you need.

Hi Naveen, I am a bit confused about what you need. Do you want the actual MY data or the typical MY? If it is actual MY, what do you mean by multi year? Do you want for multiple years?

Yes, exactly. I need the AMY (Actual Meteorological Year) hourly climatic data for multiple years, like say between 2010 to 2016 for locations in India. That would give me 7 AMY hourly weather data files.

I thank all those who are taking their time to answer my question.

For AMY you have to use one of the options of Weatherunderground, Accuweather, or Meteonorm. Weatherunderground is free and you have to do a bit of scripting, the other two involve small fees for each file they help you develop. The other option is develop a collaboration with local IMD (Indian Meteorological Dept.) office.
