Forecast

This endpoint provides an energy production anomaly forecast, expressed as a percentage from normal, for a specific latitude/longitude pair or a global forecast. The anomalies are based on the 1980-2010 baseline. Solar and wind power anomalies are expressed as fractional units. Weighted Degree Days is a composite variable of gas-weighted heating degree days (GW_HDDs) and population-weighted cooling degree days (PW_CDDs). GW_HDDs consider days below 65°F and PW_CDDs consider days above 65°F. The output is calculated for the contiguous United States (CONUS).
