Supported Tools

get_grid_aggregations

Get Grid Aggregations

Retrieve aggregated PV power data for grid regions or PV fleets. Grid aggregations combine thousands of PV systems into regional power estimates. Supports two modes: - **Live**: Estimated actual aggregated power for up to 7 days - **Forecast**: Forecasted aggregated power for up to 7 days Outputs include total power (MW) or performance units (% of capacity), with probabilistic outputs (P10/P50/P90). Used for grid management, load forecasting, VPP management, and energy trading.

manage_pv_power_site

Manage PV Power Site

Create, update, or delete a PV Power Site for use with the Advanced PV Power model. PV Power Sites store detailed system specifications including capacity, tracking type, module type, derating factors, bifacial settings, and more. Supports the following operations: - **create**: Create a new PV Power Site - **update**: Partially update an existing site's specifications - **replace**: Fully overwrite an existing site's specifications - **delete**: Delete a PV Power Site Site management operations do not consume API request quota.

get_advanced_pv_power

Get Advanced PV Power

Retrieve advanced PV power estimates for a pre-configured PV Power Site. Uses Solcast's sophisticated PV model with comprehensive site configuration options including tracking type, bifacial settings, derating factors, and more. Supports three temporal modes: - **Forecast**: Power output predictions up to 14 days ahead - **Live**: Estimated actual power output for the past 7 days - **Historic**: Historical power output from 2007 to 7 days ago Requires a PV Power Site to be created first using the "Manage PV Power Site" tool.

get_radiation_and_weather

Get Radiation & Weather

Retrieve solar irradiance and weather data for any global location. Supports three temporal modes: - **Forecast**: Up to 14 days ahead from the present time - **Live**: Estimated actuals for the past 7 days to present - **Historic**: Time series from 2007 to 7 days ago Returns time-series data including GHI, DNI, DHI, GTI, air temperature, wind speed, cloud opacity, precipitation, and more. Select specific output parameters to customize the response.

list_pv_power_sites

List PV Power Sites

List all PV Power Sites configured in your Solcast account, or retrieve details for a specific site by its resource ID. PV Power Sites store the system specifications used for advanced PV power estimates. This operation does not consume API request quota.

get_tmy_data

Get TMY Data

Retrieve Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) datasets for long-term resource assessment and energy yield modeling. TMY data is generated from 15+ years of satellite-derived historical data. Available for three data types: - **Radiation & Weather**: TMY irradiance and weather data for a location - **Rooftop PV Power**: TMY PV power output for a rooftop system - **Advanced PV Power**: TMY PV power for a pre-configured PV Power Site Useful for solar resource assessment, bankable energy yield studies, and long-term performance projections.

get_rooftop_pv_power

Get Rooftop PV Power

Estimate PV power output for a rooftop solar system at any global location. Designed for modelling production from rooftop PV systems (particularly fleets) with limited system specifications. Supports three temporal modes: - **Forecast**: Power output predictions up to 14 days ahead - **Live**: Estimated actual power output for the past 7 days - **Historic**: Historical power output from 2007 to 7 days ago

get_horizon_angle

Get Horizon Angle

Retrieve the terrain horizon angle profile for a given location. Returns elevation angles at specified azimuth intervals around the compass, useful for understanding terrain shading effects on solar installations.
