The only trusted and up‑to‑date source for SCAPS‑1D is the official ELIS website at the University of Gent. Because the software is developed and maintained by the university, downloading it from any third‑party site (such as file‑sharing platforms or unverified repositories) may expose you to outdated or even malicious versions.

The programme supports up to . Almost all parameters can be graded (dependent on depth in the cell), including:
: By requesting the software, you agree to basic conditions: it must not be sold or redistributed, and you must cite SCAPS-1D in any published research results. The Role of SCAPS-1D in Modern Photovoltaics
