Hello,
I’m doing research at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Julian Ruddick | MOBI VUB) on energy management systems.
For my next paper I was searching (among other things) for good photovoltaic power profiles and this website is exactly what I was looking for !
I need two years (2022 and 2023 for example) of real pv production for between 10-100 different houses in Belgium, I see how to gather this using the API.
To make the paper reproducible I wanted to publish the data I used to make my simulations. I see this is possible (Terms of Service — PVOutput documentation) with a certain license but couldn’t figure out exactly which one.
I wanted to see what’s the best way to do this with your permission. Obviously I will cite this website in the paper.
What would I need to do (subscription, one time payment, specific license or direct agreement) to be able to publish as a csv 2 year of historical pv profile for 100 different Belgian installations ?
Looking forward to your reply or anyone who knows about this
