Power generation forecasts enable the integration of wind and solar energy into power grids and energy markets. enercast PFS is designed to deliver accurate forecasts for individual plants or entire wind or solar parks.

Based on plant data, historical meter data and operational data provided by the customer, as well as up to 10 weather models, enercast PFS forecasts the power output for anywhere between 15 minutes and 31 days ahead.

The resulting forecasts are delivered in real time in a variety of formats via e-mail, FTP and a powerful API. The forecasts can also be visualized and configured through the enercast portal.

Your Benefits

• High-quality forecasts. enercast uses advanced artificial intelligence as well as sophisticated physical models to ensure the most accurate forecasts.
• Industry-strength delivery. enercast’s excellent track record in big data analytics and a robust, redundant hardware architecture across three separate data centers guarantees virtually uninterrupted delivery of your critical business data.
• Excellent decision support. A wide range of both preset and customizable options help you adapt the forecasts to your specific application needs, whether it is about increasing trading revenues, optimizing grid efficiency or achieving greater economic viability.

enercast PFA is designed to deliver accurate forecasts for the renewable energy generation in any given reference area. This supports active grid control, reduces balancing energy charges, and informs trading decisions.

Based on up to 10 weather models, satellite measurements, reference sites and historical data, enercast forecasts the power output for anywhere between 15 minutes and 31 days ahead.

The resulting forecasts are delivered in real time in a variety of formats via e-mail, FTP and a powerful API.

Your Benefits

• High-quality forecasts. enercast uses advanced artificial intelligence as well as sophisticated physical models to ensure the most accurate forecasts.
• Customized quality criteria. For optimized forecast quality and monitoring, the customer can specify desired reference values, such as ENTSO-E, or other measurements or aggregations, which will then form the basis for forecast training.

Accurate forecasts enable optimal usage of the energy produced by small-scale photovoltaic installations. enercast SEF allows you to integrate power generation forecasts into monitoring and energy management systems with minimum effort through an efficient API.

Based on technical data of the plant and weather forecasts from globally leading numerical weather prediction models, enercast SEF computes the expected PV generation for the next hours and days.

Your Benefits

• Smart energy management. Optimized charging of stationary storage systems and electric vehicles as well as smart control of consumers maximizes the own consumption of solar energy.
• Efficient and versatile integration. The OEM API enables rapid integration of forecasts in diverse applications, be it for market integration of smallscale PV energy after termination of feed-in tariff regulation or as reference of the possible generation for PV monitoring systems.
• Predictive control. Anticipating the future PV generation in battery management maximizes the life expectancy of storage systems.
