Why Choose SolarAnywhere?
Focused on providing trusted solar data first and foremost
While others broaden their focus into adjacent design and performance platforms, Clean Power Research® remains dedicated to advancing solar resource, weather and forecasting data, and the specialized intelligence services built around it.
Our continued investment in SolarAnywhere ensures you benefit from industry-leading accuracy, lower uncertainty and a clear roadmap of ongoing innovation.
Validated against ground observations, not optimized to validation sites
Our modeling philosophy is different. Rather than training or tuning irradiance models to local ground-station measurements, our physics-based approach performs consistently across the globe.
No matter the location, you can depend on reliable results that are independent of ground-measurement networks that can artificially improve performance in data-rich regions.
Continuous improvements, not static datasets
SolarAnywhere does not stand still. New research, methodologies and validation results are incorporated into every generation of the platform.
Historical datasets are reprocessed with each major model release so you benefit from improvements across your entire analysis workflow, not just future data.
Innovation across every time horizon
Our investments span the full solar lifecycle, such as ongoing climate intelligence research, next-generation forecasting, and more.
Innovations like these make it possible to better quantify long-term performance risk and wildfire impacts with industry-first climate projection and smoke impact datasets. Or support energy market trading, meet PPA requirements, manage dispatchable PV and more with advanced deterministic and probabilistic forecasts.
Low-Uncertainty Data for Solar Project Design and Finance
One of the most effective ways to improve solar project economics is to reduce uncertainty. SolarAnywhere makes this possible with objective, globally available irradiance and weather data with independently validated low uncertainty.
At RE+, join us to explore what makes SolarAnywhere the best choice for energy yield assessment—from a globally consistent, physics-based modeling approach, to novel methods of quantifying smoke impacts and achieving climate resilience with data offerings that span nearly 140 years.

More defensible energy-yield assessments with SolarAnywhere
SolarAnywhere provides objective, independently validated irradiance and weather data with low uncertainty, global coverage, high temporal and spatial resolution, and the historical depth needed to characterize interannual variability.
With SolarAnywhere, stakeholders can rely on more accurate, defensible energy estimates and more consistent, scalable development, financing and investment decisions.

Climate-informed project evaluation with MeteoLens™
With SolarAnywhere MeteoLens, it’s now possible to assess how evolving weather conditions could affect long-term production, project value and portfolio risk.
Available in formats suitable for Energy Yield Assessment, MeteoLens datasets make it possible to evaluate location-specific climate projections through 2099 across multiple CMIP6-aligned SSP scenarios.
Reliable Performance Benchmarking and Forecasting for Solar O&M
As solar penetration increases, so does financial risk from underperformance and solar variability. SolarAnywhere real-time and forecast data solutions make it possible to confidently benchmark solar asset performance, identify underperformance issues, bid into energy markets, manage dispatchable PV, conduct reserve planning, and more.
At RE+, learn how you can take advantage of SolarAnywhere’s independent, weather-adjusted benchmark data and solar-specific forecasts to reliably and profitably optimize your solar operations. Ask us about our trial programs!

Reliable performance benchmarking for asset management
Asset managers and performance engineers are under pressure to explain underperformance quickly and consistently with confidence.
SolarAnywhere SystemCheck® provides an independent, weather-adjusted benchmark using satellite-derived irradiance, weather and expected power generation data.
SystemCheck real-time data makes it possible for teams to separate weather-driven losses from true operational issues, standardize performance analytics across portfolios and reduce time spent chasing bad data.

Accurate, risk-aware solar forecasts for operators, traders and IPPs
As solar penetration increases, so does financial and operational risk from solar variability.
SolarAnywhere Forecast offers global, solar-specific forecasts that combine optimized model blending, cloud motion vector technology, advanced power modeling, high-resolution forecast data and probabilistic P1–P99 uncertainty ranges.
SolarAnywhere forecasts help customers maximize asset profitability and grid stability by enabling better trading, dispatch, reserve planning and operational decisions.
