We've just integrated the HRRR mesoscale model into our Solcast API for enhanced solar accuracy in North America. Check out the difference between the new and old Solcast models!

Accurate solar forecasts are key to stabilizing energy prices. Solcast examines a June 3rd anomaly in Germany to highlight the price of forecasting errors.

Ever wondered how the solar storms that create the Aurora Borealis impact PV generation? Check out how extra-terrestrial irradiance changes solar power during solar flares in our latest insights report.

Solcast forecast improvement is already live for solar operators! Check out how Solcast achieved a relative ~10% error improvement with the integration of high-resolution ICON-EU weather model.

While Arabian Peninsula solar falls short due to dust storms and heavy cloud cover, parts of West Asia experienced above-normal irradiance. Check the latest report analysing the dust and weather conditions that impacted solar in West Asia.

Check out the unique view of the eclipse showing the live actuals for the eclipse path and weather impacts on irradiance. The effects on solar generation across American assets and grids were analysed using the Solcast API.

Get ready for the April 8th solar eclipse across the US, a key event for eclipse watchers and solar power managers. This interactive forecast map uses cloud tracking built for the solar industry to show the latest forecast for cloud thickness during the eclipse.

A cloudy February resulted to 15% below-normal irradiance. Check the weather conditions that contributed to the drop in solar generation in Europe.
