Forecasts for route-to-market.
Not one line, but three

For wind and solar aggregators: P10, P50 and P90 for every 15 minutes, sent via API straight to your trading system. Even for new assets with no track record.

PROBABILISTIC FORECASTS

P10, P50 and P90: three curves to manage your risk

mP Xnergy delivers three values for every quarter-hour:

  • P10: the realistic lower bound. Generation falls below it in only about one in ten cases.
  • P50: the median, the standard forecast you know today.
  • P90: the realistic upper bound. Generation exceeds it in only about one in ten cases.

How to read the band: narrow means the forecast is reliable. Wide means this is where the risk lies, for example when it is unclear when a cloud front will pass through.

Prognosebandp10 P50 P90

Four decisions that get better with three curves

 

 

Volume to sell: offer below P50 in uncertain hours rather than betting blindly on the median.

Cost risk: the gap between P50 and P10 shows how much imbalance you face in a bad case.

Intraday: a wide band signals the need to rebalance. If P90 sits well above P50, hold volume back to sell.

Risk management: limits and reporting rest on a transparent, traceable basis.

NEW ASSETS FROM DAY ONE

No track record? No reason to fly blind.

When you commission new plants, the measurement data on which traditional forecasting models rely is missing. mP Xnergy provides forecasts from day one and learns from every measurement. The margin of error narrows day by day.

The mP Simulator calculates in advance how the forecasting accuracy of a new plant will develop. This enables you to plan risk buffers even before commissioning.

Forecast quality

How to recognise a good probabilistic forecast

A trading strategy is only as good as its performance over many quarter-hours. A backtest using your historical data will show whether this is the case. This also allows you to compare forecasting providers fairly.

Too optimistic

Band too narrow

Actual values fall outside the band more often than P10 and P90 suggest. Your risk is underestimated.

Honest and precise

Band fits

Around 8 in 10 actuals fall within the band. You can base your trading and limits on that.

Too
cautious

Band too wide

Hardly anything falls outside, but the band is too wide to guide any decision.
