What's New in SolarAid

2.1.2

March 26, 2024

Welcome to the latest release of SolarAid. Please note that SolarAid does not produce the forecasts and relies on a third party, we are looking into adding additional forecast providers as some users find the current forecasts inaccurate. - The current time slot will now be bold. - You can now choose to have previous time slots 'struck' out. - Fixed a UI issue which caused overflow at the bottom when too many timeslots were returned. - Fixed an issue where users with an API key only saw 2 days of forecasts.

Very variable accuracy

I monitored the forecast generation and compared it with the actual generation of my 3 kWp array for about a month. Overall it slightly underestimated my generation but on a daily basis it could be extremely inaccurate with generation often half or twice the forecast. Today has been an extreme example. 9.8 kWh forecast, 2.3 kWh generated. Quoting half hourly forecasts with a precision of 1 Wh (3 decimal places kWh) is ridiculous.
