Forecasting API call #25

Open DarkSlice1 opened 2 years ago

DarkSlice1 commented 2 years ago

I'm currently running a residential solar system and using online forecasting predictions to set battery charge levels as to not over charge during off peak times.

My current provider has been pretty hit and miss (by a large percentage, today it's predicted less than 1kw at 1am this morning, but we ended up with 18.4kw)

You can review my public GitHub project for more details on what my application does. But I track it's accuracy over time

Detailed Description

Context

I wish to reduce my co2 footprint by reducing demand on my electrical provider by using more accurate predictions to set minimum charge on my battery to reach the point at which the solar panels can take over the runner or the house hold

Possible Implementation

A secure call to a exposed public API that gives the caller the total expected solar generation based on pv size, efficiency, orientation, geo location and pitch.

Current forecasting accurately

Hi, really interesting project! Currently, we've been focused on regional and national forecasts for the UK's National Grid, but starting in July we are planning on also building out creating forecasts for individual PV systems. Would you be interested in maybe having a call about more of your requirements, and possibly being an alpha testor for our forecast when we get that running?

Sure sounds cool, give me a shout when your up and ready to go 😁
