AI Solar & Battery Dispatch

For solar systems with battery storage, use weather forecasts and historical metering to estimate next-day generation and load. Recommend how much grid energy to add overnight and when to charge, subject to time-of-use rates and reserve requirements.

Day-ahead power forecast

Example day-ahead solar and load forecast Example forecast for solar generation and metered circuits. The dashed line is the median load, and the light-blue band is the P10 to P90 range. Shaded periods show off-peak rates. The purple bar marks grid charging from 03:45 to 05:30.

Grid charging window 03:45–05:30

Shading shows off-peak periods and the purple bar marks grid charging. The curves and energy values are illustrative.

From forecasts to charging plans

Generation forecast correction
Compare past weather forecasts with measured generation to identify bias across weather conditions and refine next-day generation estimates.
Load and forecast range
Estimate day-ahead load in 15-minute intervals for metered circuits. The median curve shows a typical estimate and the P10–P90 band shows uncertainty.
Grid charging window and energy
The plan shows recommended charging periods and total charging time. Separate estimates for AC grid energy and energy reaching the battery make charging losses visible.
Cost and backup reserves
Compare candidate plans using time-of-use rates, charging efficiency, and battery wear, then check each plan against reserve requirements.

Typical use cases

A building at dusk with rooftop solar panels, lit windows, and a nearby battery storage cabinet.
Illustrative scenario · Rooftop solar, storage, and evening electricity demand

Strong solar output on sunny days

When next-day generation is forecast to be high and load low, compare reduced grid charging with skipping it to balance backup reserves and solar utilization.

Cloud cover and high evening demand

When low solar generation and high evening demand are forecast, estimate the storage shortfall and compare early charging options during off-peak periods.

Volatile electricity demand

When the forecast band widens, check backup reserves under both typical and higher-load scenarios.

Metering boundaries and plan evaluation

Define metering boundaries
Track downstream demand, grid imports, and battery charge and discharge separately. This keeps battery charging out of the load forecast and prevents double-counting metered loads.
Replay with information available at the time
Preserve the forecasts available when the plan was made. Compare them with measurements for the same time intervals to quantify generation and load forecast errors.
Compare plans under the same conditions
Compare fixed-window charging, no grid charging, and the recommended plan against the same historical interval. Evaluate estimated costs and backup reserves. The dashboard illustrates what the plan reports.
