Description
The objective of this Market Research is to search for suppliers capable of delivering a continuous feed of representative embedded PV generation data that meets the following outcomes: 1. Improve system visibility: Provide near real time insight into embedded PV output across Ireland and Northern Ireland. 2. Support operational forecasting: Enable EirGrid and SONI to better predict short term solar output changes by creating proxy forecasts for the locations of the data supplied by the tender winner(s) and then use the actual generation of the proxy sites to fine tune the actual forecast. 3. Provide a geographically representative dataset: Ensure broad dispersion and diversity of PV sites to reflect system-wide behaviour. 4. Deliver high data quality and reliability: Ensure data is accurate, validated, and free from distortions such as behind the meter battery interactions.
