Closed corradio closed 4 years ago
I contacted them in August, no luck. See details in comment for #143 on 9 August 2017 (https://github.com/tmrowco/electricitymap-contrib/issues/143#issuecomment-321346838)
For what it's worth, I tried OCRing the images with tesseract, but only got gibberish back. With some optimisations, we could maybe parse out the current solar/wind production number, but the overall production/load is only available as a line in the chart.
I would suggest closing this issue, unless someone has a contact at Hawaiian Electric they can ask for more open data.
I don't believe this issue is worth keeping open. Please reopen if useful real-time data becomes available.
I had a very good call with the person that set up the tool (https://www.hawaiianelectric.com/clean-energy-hawaii/integration-tools-and-resources/renewable-watch). Will follow up with more info.
Any updates on Hawaii @corradio ?
Unfortunately none. I tried re-contacting but without luck

I'm going to close it again since we don't have data. On upside, these current "renewable watch" images on https://www.mauielectric.com/clean-energy-hawaii/integration-tools-and-resources/renewable-watch seem to be screenshots of Windows 7 machines so maybe they'll be upgrading the system soon when Windows 7 support runs out and they provide an API then...
I came across this website https://www.islandpulse.org/ which provides an overview of the energy production by energy mix in realtime (updates approx. every 30min) for the Oahu island of Hawaii. The data is provided by Hawaiian Electric.
I was able to find out where the data comes from (all the way back to December 2013):
These URLS accept "date" and "limit" parameters to filter on specific dates or limit the number of returned results. E.g.,:
I guess this data would be sufficient to add Oahu island to the map? :)
Timezones need investigating (most data points in https://www.islandpulse.org/api/mix do not specify timezone, and https://www.islandpulse.org/ gave me "We Were Using 665 Megawatts At 8:30am" at 9:30 am EDT (3:30 Oahu time) but looks promising!
As far as I can tell Oahu doesn't have interconnections with the other islands, so I might take a crack at this in the near future.
@systemcatch Great! I already gave it a go over the weekend. This parser fetches the most recent mix and wraps it in the necessary structure. I attach the file so it might possibly serve as a starting point for you. :) US_HI.txt I wasn't able to work on it further, because I have problems with getting Docker to work on Windows (it exits after trying to run "RUN bash topogen.sh").
As @jarek already mentioned there is something weird with the timestamp returned by https://www.islandpulse.org/api/mix?limit=1 . However, if you compare this with the results of energy usage (which seem to have correct timestamps) from https://www.islandpulse.org/api/usage?limit=6 then the numbers do add up! I'm not sure whether we should just "fix" the timestamp manually in the parser?
Finally, the site of Hawaiian Electric does provide a nice map with the generation capacities on Oahu island:
@kepiej does docker show an error message? It seems like the first mix datapoint always contains a timestamp with a different format to the others, e.g. 2019-06-20T08:00:00.000Z
in https://www.islandpulse.org/api/mix?limit=5

Sorry for my slow response. Running Docker on windows fails when it comes to the step "RUN bash topogen.sh":
"Service 'web' failed to build: the command '/bin/sh -c bash topogen.sh' returned a non-zero code 2." The error is: "invalid option nameet: pipefail".
A quick search came up with this stackoverflow question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54055549/linux-ubuntu-set-illegal-option-o-pipefail# I don't know how to resolve this with Docker though.
you need to change the line endings of topogen.sh (try between CR and CRLF). I think it's a windows thing.

@kepiej If the Windows thing is stopping you then just make a PR and one of us can build the branch instead.
Thanks for the help! I got Docker working on Windows. :) I opened a pull request #1900 that implements the basic parser for realtime data. Still to do:
Closing as I think this is solved for now?
Data is shown here as an image. Maybe someone can contact them?
