Wind Forecasting Error Distributions

2

• Using forecast errors taken from operational systems

• Aggregated at regions that are ISO-sized

• Map errors from WWSIS 1 through a model error distribution and tweak to generate more realistic error distributions

Solar Forecasting Data

• Working with SUNY – Albany Atmospheric Science Research Center to get data on solar forecasting errors

• Two different forecasting services:• National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD) forecasts produced

by the National Weather Service that are utilized as part of SolarAnywhere

• The Global Environmental Monitoring System (GEMS) forecast produced by the Canadian weather service

• One year of data for day-ahead forecasts • Four sites:

• Desert Rock, NV• Boulder, CO• Fort Peck, MT• Sioux Falls, SD
