Hey folks, looking for some suggestions here. I have a small rooftop system (Qcells 4 kW) with a backup storage from SolarEdge (Home Battery 48V). Although my mysolaredge app provides production forecasting, I am still looking for a better solar power forecast provider with some advanced features. While googling for a free solar power forecast API, I randomly found Solar-Forecast.com. As per their website, they allow me to personalize my forecast with API services. I also checked their LinkedIn and found out they are comparatively new. Does anyone know them? Has anyone used it?

    I suppose this strongly depends on where you live in our wonderful land. When I lived in the flatlands I could walk outside and see the the weather coming half a day away. Here in the rain shadow of the Cascades MY weather forecast is more accurate by watching the forest animals and birdies than the NWS and any TV meteorologist.
