Would be interesting to add a way for the site to capture different inverter characteristics when live pv data is not provided. For example, the case in which you have an undersized inverter would lead to saturation in PV generation. There could be something in PVLib already that could be used to help with this: HERE |

Hey guys, good evening, this Pablo from Tryolabs, I'm a software engineer with an ML background and I also happened to work at Uruguay's National Weather Service for a few years, so some of these things ring a bell (but no formal training on the physics). I've been looking for opportunities for collaboration with your project and came up with a few questions and a few ideas for your consideration: Questions:
Possible suggestions (to be prioritized):Features
Modelling
Visualization
Code
Looking at the list of issues in your repo, I think an AutoGluonTS Challenger model could be a quick win if we get to improve on the current model. |
Hi @Ludecan Thanks so much for getting in contact, and for lots of your ideas. Questions (hopefully the answers)
FeaturesUse delta/lagged temporal features
Use spatial deltas/lags (for incorporating cloud trajectory data)
Include coordinates in forecast
Incorporate extraterrestrial solar radiation for the location and point in time? (if I remember this right, we could use this as an upper bound on the solar radiation at the site, ie before entering the atmosphere, it can be approximated deterministically and could help understand yearly/location cycles)
Consider atmospheric pressure (spatio delta), dew point (for frosting effect) and humidity (to detect fog) for the forecast? The latter two are unlikely to happen on solar panel sites but it shouldn’t be difficult to consider the variables and take them from GFS
CodeYea, im in two minds, we are trying to keep this as simple as possible, and I thought requirements would be enough. Might be worth pinning the versions though. yea we should use those, there are some similar ones in pv-site-predictions which might be worth adding in Training

Hey @peterdudfield, thank you very much for your answers. Very helpful to start gaining context. I was thinking on adding AutoGluonTS as a configuration option for the regressor of the existing pipeline. That way we can reuse all the work you guys have done for other components. And regarding the data, I followed the links to this dataset. Is this the UKV data? If so maybe I can start working with it and then in a separate step add in the ICON NWP data. What do you think? |
Yea that is about right. That dataset is the PV data, so not the NWP. Unfortunately the UKV NWP data is not public. But you do need the that PV data. Yea please have a go at adding that regressor, and myself and/or @zakwatts could help you out |
Hi @Ludecan, see my answer above. This message from you seemed to come twice so I'm a little b confused |
Got it. Will start working on that and keep you posted. Sorry for the double post, just deleted the duplicate. |
No worries, thanks in advance @Ludecan |
