DatasetsSolar power generation forecast - updated every 15 minutes

Solar

power generation forecast for the next 72 hours. Updated every 15 minutes.

Solar forecasts are based on weather forecasts and estimates of installed PV

capacity and location in Finland. Additionally, production measurements are

used for forecasting production of large-scale solar parks. Small-scale PV

capacity is based on yearly capacity statistics from the Finnish energy

authority and estimates on installation rate of new capacity. Location

information is a very rough estimate based on Finnish distribution grid

operators information. The data before 31.05.2023 is in hourly

resolution.
