Prediction of PV installation angles

1s2.0S0306261924000734gr2 lrg1200x1016.jpg

Problem/current situation

  • Pronovo AG issues certificates of origin to photovoltaic (PV) plant owners.
  • They have a database of mostPV plants (location, tilt, orientation, capacity, …) in Switzerland.
  • But: Data oninstallation angles (orientation & tilt) is incomplete and not public.

We don´t know

  • Which PV plant belongs to which building?
  • On which roof(s) are the panels likely installed?
  • How many roofs are covered to which extent?
  • Estimate the installation angles (tilt & orientation) for each PV plant.

Why

  • We want to generate forecasts for all ~233.700 PV plants in the Pronovo database to improve our forecast
  • We need to know more about the installation angles.
  • The sonnendach.chdatabase holds data on roofs (tilt, orientation, suitability for PV). Panel Orientation, Panel Tilt

Challenge

  • Can you predict PV installation angles (orientation & tilt) based on sonnendach.ch’sdata on roofs?
