What is Solargis Monitor API?

Solargis Monitor API helps you accurately assess solar project performance in near real-time.

Using third-party satellite-derived irradiation data promotes transparency and independent validation of performance reporting.

Data is available at 5/10/15-minute intervals, and aggregated from hourly up to yearly intervals.

  • XML format via REST API
  • Independent validation of reported PV performance 
  • Gap- and error-free solar radiation data
  • Minimize uncertainty in meteo station inputs 
  • Benchmark planned performance against reality
Minimize errors from meteo station data

Minimize errors from meteo station data

Ground measurements tend to be costly and often come with gaps and errors, lacking some of the most necessary parameters that affect plant performance.

Solargis Monitor API gives you reliable satellite-derived data that is easy to access, accurate, and continuous. Operate with 20+ solar, meteo, and environmental parameters in near real-time and for any site around the globe.

Benchmark expectations against reality

Benchmark expectations against reality

Reliably calculate the site's performance ratio using site-specific solar radiation data.

Benchmark the real PV output against expected energy performance to assess the project's actual operational efficiency.

In doing so, you can be confident that your performance reporting to key stakeholders reflects the true environmental conditions and is both transparent and bulletproof.

Integrate Solargis data easily
