Getting started

[gabrielelibardi]

I would like to run pvnet to get live forecasts, however I see that this is only one of several microservices that are needed to download the satellite data and the different NWP (like this https://github.com/openclimatefix/Satip and https://github.com/openclimatefix/nwp-consumer), was wondering if you have an example of how to use these microservices together.

Hi @gabrielelibardi

We have it all in our https://github.com/openclimatefix/ocf-infrastructure repo. This is terraform for deploying these things. Note that some of these items need licneses.

Your welcome to try it out at https://app.quartz.solar/

Thanks a lot that is very helpful! Is it possible to get the generation forecast for sites in Europe outside of the UK through your api?

What area are you looking for?

Germany

Thanks @gabrielelibardi, our open source model should work for Germany - https://github.com/openclimatefix/open-source-quartz-solar-forecast.

How big are the sites you trying to forecast in Germany?
If you want something more turned to you sites, for better accuracy, contact us at [email protected]
