Smart Meter Forecasting (Delivery & Return)
From raw smart meter data to clear delivery/return forecasts
We’ve expanded our smart meter capabilities to include forecasting for both electricity delivered to and returned from the grid. These forecasts are particularly useful for planning energy usage, optimising self-consumption, or supporting dynamic tariff models.
What's new?
- Delivery forecasts estimate upcoming grid consumption for a given address and smart meter.
- Return forecasts estimate the expected feed-in to the grid, typically from sources like solar PV.
This provides a more complete picture of future grid interaction, helping systems anticipate and adapt energy behaviour more intelligently. These forecasts are generated using historical smart meter data combined with local weather and usage patterns.
Access control
As with other energy forecasting features, these endpoints require specific API roles. If you receive a 401 or 403, your account may not have access. Please contact support for assistance.
