Hello,
We have data for Estonia, including wind:
This matches current output of https://dashboard.elering.ee/en/system/production-renewable (I'm seeing 229 MW right now) fairly well.
Perhaps Estonia's data was temporarily offline when you looked?
Hi @jarek , ah okay, no, it didnt was offline, I just wondered, that the production caused the highest amount of CO2 in europe, what I thought didnt could make sense, if the regenerative energy association has that amount of wind power. See my screenshot
It is because the "coal" burned in Estonia is unfortunately incredibly CO2eq-emitting oil shale, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_shale_in_Estonia#Air_emissions
Electricity Map is using 1515 gCOeq/kWh for Estonian shale https://github.com/tmrowco/electricitymap-contrib/blob/f7026be3d2ee855392535e6f559d866c8f72d1fb/config/co2eq_parameters.json#L242-L245 while other "bad" sources like coal are assigned 700 g/kWh. (Which is to an extent unrealistic, for example for brown coal / lignite - improving those numbers is planned in #738.)
I think nothing can be added to Estonia as it is, so I will close this issue.
Hello,
I got in contact with the regenerative energy association of estonia and they provided me the following link with a dashboard to the wind power plants, maybe you can work with it:
