Super-excited to be able to share that Open Climate Fix's solar PV nowcast is currently 2.8 times better than the baseline (National Grid ESO's forecast) over a horizon of 2 hours. Our mean absolute error is 233 MW. ESO's MAE is 650 MW. And we've only just scratched the surface!

Six months ago, Open Climate Fix and the UCL #AI Society started working together on a climate-focused #ML competition, ClimateHack.AI, and last Saturday we finally learned who the winners are! 🧵


#Opensource lies at the heart of our work. So, we have released several #ML model architectures that we have used for our #solar #electricity #forecasting work. This wouldn’t have been possible without the support from the Shuttleworth openclimatefix.org/blog/2022-05-1…


Thrilled to share that we've won an Innovate UK grant to accelerate the development of our #opensource solution for #netzero! Our #solar #PV generation forecast will help solar farms, solar + storage, and smart homes manage their systems, reducing both costs and #CO2 emissions.

We are funding & supporting 6 excellent open technology projects to accelerate net zero across the energy system. Congratulations to Open Climate Fix, Carbon Coop, CSE, Jet Systems Hélicoptères Services, @TOffeeAm, Thermal Integration


Big announcement! (finally) This is the largest dataset of free High Resolution satellite imagery out there, available for non-commercial purposes. Thanks to ESA Earth Observation ESA Earth Observation Φ-Lab and coauthors Julien Cornebise , Bluesky @jcornebise.bsky.social Ivan Orsolic and Airbus for the generous licensing



Could diffusion models forecast the weather? • Models like Imagen Video show stunning temporal & spatial coherence • Create ensembles by re-seeding the random input img • Easier to train than GANs Jacob Bieker at Open Climate Fix is exploring the idea: github.com/openclimatefix…

Excited to be part of this panel for Project Resilience next week as part of the Int’l Telecommunication Union AI for Good 🇺🇳 #AIforGood aiforgood.itu.int/event/project-…

Big announcement from United Nations Global Initiative on #AI and #Data Commons ▶️ Don't miss #AIforGood Webinar with Cognizant and Open Climate Fix on the MVP platform developed by Project Resilience. 🌐 loom.ly/y-F9m8Y 🗓️ 18 November 2022 ⏰ 18:00 CET, 09:00 PST, 01:00 CST


Tune in for OCF's Jacob Bieker's talk this Friday delivered as part of AI for Good 🇺🇳 #AIforGood & UN's Global Initiative on #AI and #Data Commons. Jacob will be talking about the datasets we've been gathering and how #AI can help reduce #greenhouse #gas emissions while minimising the cost.

Excited to be talking about the work we've been doing Open Climate Fix!
