What data are we looking at?
NREL's PVWatts® API estimates the energy production of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) energy systems based on a few simple inputs.
- Address
- Axis-Tracking
- Capacity
- Angle
Using these simple outputs you get a high level projection of the energy production of a solar system.
