SolarAnywhere®
Investment-grade Solar Data
Confidently site, engineer and finance your solar projects with SolarAnywhere—the industry’s most accurate and validated solar resource data and intelligence
Leading solar enterprises around the world trust in SolarAnywhere to reduce project risk and secure the best financing terms. Developed specifically for solar PV applications, SolarAnywhere offers the most-extensive meteorological datasets and energy intelligence to optimize plant design, and better understand extreme-weather risks and inter-annual variability.
And it doesn’t end there. SolarAnywhere supports every stage of the solar lifecycle, with data and intelligence services for benchmarking and forecasting operational solar plant performance to help ensure long-term profitability.
What Makes SolarAnywhere Bankable?
When designing and financing solar power plants, quality solar resource data matters. SolarAnywhere high-fidelity irradiance data meets the highest standards for bankability and is trusted by the solar industry for PV project financing. Site-specific intelligence such as snow and soiling loss data helps developers and solar asset owners better understand risk from extreme weather and improve PV performance benchmarking for their solar assets.
Validated Accuracy
Depend on data that is thoroughly validated and versioned for comparability and repeatability, with published low uncertainty, and trusted industry-wide for its accuracy and reliability
Reliable and Consistent Results
Confidently compare project sites, conduct performance analyses, and generate highly-reliable energy yield and cashflow predictions using built-for-solar data that is generated with globally consistent and rigorously tested methodologies
Spatially Precise Measurements
Accurately model solar project performance with sub-hourly, high-resolution data that represents actual conditions at a project site—not just averages, synthetic data or ground measurements from nearby sites
Long History + Current Data
Rely on gap-free typical year and time-series data with a long period of record to reduce long-term average solar resource uncertainty and increase accuracy of low insolation year (P90/P99) estimates to manage PV production and financing risk
Highly Available
Streamline workflows by accessing historical, real-time and forecast data when and where you need it, either on-demand, via API or directly from within your PV simulation program of choice
Innovating SolarAnywhere to Meet Future Challenges
Originally developed with renowned atmospheric science researcher Dr. Richard Perez and his team at the University at Albany (SUNY), SolarAnywhere continues to benefit from an exclusive partnership that drives industry-first innovations. With SolarAnywhere, you can take advantage of the latest advancements to:
- Assess PV production and financial risk from extreme weather events such as wildfires and snowstorms with site-specific snow and soiling loss data, generated using industry-vetted pvlib models
- Better understand inter-annual variability and likelihood of low insolation years with long-term (P50/P90) probability of exceedance data
- Design bifacial projects with albedo data that is ready to use in your modeling tool of choice
- Simplify prospecting with plane of array irradiance data
- Optimize solar+storage plant design to deliver firm solar power with hindcasts
- Improve clipping loss and battery ramp-rate assessment with high-resolution data (500 meter, 5 minute) with True Dynamics™ (available in the continental U.S.)
- Lower overall project uncertainty with best-in-class tuned solar resource data wherever onsite ground measurements are available resulting in a validated, project-specific satellite-ground dataset
- Tackle asset underperformance with real-time, high frequency data solutions
- Scale monitoring across your PV fleets with standardized, nowcasted PV performance data
Integrate SolarAnywhere into your workflows today and be confident it will meet your needs now and in the future.
