About

Accurate estimation of solar energy potential is crucial in the pre-feasibility phase. Besides accurate results, it is also desired that the pre-feasibility study is done efficiently. Solargis prospecting tools, iMaps and pvPlanner, provide fast access to reliable solar yield estimates. The new Prospect tool further increases the accuracy of estimates and makes it easier to collaborate efficiently on the development of solar projects. Solargis data has the best accuracy and reliability amongst available solar databases. This has been confirmed by several independent studies. Solargis data has been validated at 1000+ locations globally. Validation statistics for 180+ non-confidential sites can be seen on our validation map. Popular simulation software such as PVsyst has advanced capabilities for system design and energy modeling. However, the default weather data in such tools is not the most reliable.

About

Solcast is a cloud-based solar and weather data software built to provide high-resolution, bankable historical, live, and forecast solar irradiance, weather, and photovoltaic (PV) power data for renewable energy applications, delivered through a scalable REST API and developer tools. It tracks real-time satellite cloud cover and blends that with advanced weather models to deliver solar irradiance forecasts from five minutes up to 14 days ahead with high spatial and temporal resolution, and also supplies historical time series from 2007 to seven days ago for performance analysis. Solcast supports multiple PV power forecast models (Rooftop PV, Advanced PV, and Premium PV) that estimate actuals and future output for solar assets of any scale, and its API returns data in JSON or CSV formats suitable for integration into energy software, analytics platforms, or custom workflows. Developers can access this data using native HTTP clients or SDKs (such as Python and C#) with code examples.
