Our standard data processing
The location forecast is interpolated on the basis of EWC's MOS-driven forecast system. A Clear Sky Model and the production via the global irradiation forecast complement the forecast. Losses due to clouds and snow are individually considered and adapted to the altitude of the solar plant location. The forecast accurancy is improved by incorporating solar farm-specific live power generation data provided by the customer.
