A dataset covering North America, Central America, parts of South America, Europe, Africa, and parts of Asia.
Wind and Solar Profiles
Model electricity generation profiles of wind and solar plants by leveraging SAInt’s integration with high spatial- and temporal-resolution meteorological datasets.
Wind and Solar Resource Datasets
Photovoltaic Geographical Information System (PVGIS) by the European Commission
A dataset covering Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe, and Australia.
Wind Integration National Dataset (WIND) Toolkit by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory
A dataset covering the Continental United States, Mexico, India, Philippines, Vietnam, and Central Asia.
Other Meteorological Datasets
We can assist users with the integration of other meteorological datasets into SAInt. Contact us for more information.
Solar PV and Wind Performance Models
Solar PV
NREL's System Advisor Model (SAM) is fully integrated into SAInt to leverage its solar PV performance model PVWatts. A SAInt user can define the following parameters for any solar PV plant: installed capacity, panel type, array type, orientation and the tilt angle of the panels, DC/AC ratio of the plant, and system losses.
Wind
SAInt’s wind performance model allows the user to define the following parameters for any wind plant: hub height, wind turbine power curve (hundreds are provided for different commercial and generic wind turbines), and system losses.
