Reduce Imbalance Costs by 20% with EURO1k and US1k, Exclusive Weather Models Available Through the Meteomatics Weather API
The share of renewable energy in the electricity grid continues to grow, but the intermittent nature of solar and wind power is driving up balancing costs and increasing financial risks for energy companies.
A leading European energy provider recently found that Meteomatics' EURO1k weather model reduces imbalance costs by up to 20%, significantly outperforming other forecasting models.
For example, a company managing a 1 GW portfolio of solar, onshore wind, or offshore wind energy could face annual balancing costs in the millions of euros. By leveraging EURO1k, these costs can be reduced by 20%, generating potential savings of up to 2.5 million euros per year in certain scenarios — delivering a strong return on investment.
What Makes 1k Models So Special?
