When to create a forecast
Create a custom forecast when you need projections for a specific asset or project. You can:
Run your own inputs through the forecasting model
Compare multiple scenarios for the same project
Forecast for both operational and non-operational assets
Starting a new forecast
There are two ways to create a forecast:
Hover over Forecasts in the sidebar and click the + icon
Go to the forecast library and click Create forecast
Entering forecast details
The forecast form lets you configure:
Asset name — If you enter an operational asset, we'll pull in its parameters automatically (you can still edit them)
Location — Where the asset is or will be located
Asset size and duration — Power (MW) and energy (MWh) capacity
Cycling limits — Maximum daily cycles if applicable
Choosing your scenario settings
At the top of the form, select:
Revenue strategy — Merchant/energy focus (default) or Ancillary focus
Worldview — Central (default), Low, or High scenario
Running the forecast
Give your forecast a name and click Create forecast. The model will process your inputs — you can track progress in the sidebar.
Accessing your forecast
Once processed, your forecast appears in:
Forecasts section in the sidebar
Portfolio — Future view
Plotter — For visualisation
Data library — For download
You can also download the full results as a CSV.
