Library for fetching and converting weather data to power systems data
Project description
Atlite is a free software, xarray-based Python library for converting weather data (like wind speeds, solar influx) into energy systems data. It has a lightweight design and works with big weather datasets while keeping the resource requirements especially on CPU and RAM resources low.
Atlite can process the following weather data fields and can convert them into following power-system relevant time series for any subsets of a full weather data base.
Atlite was initially developed by the Renewable Energy Group at FIAS to carry out simulations for the CoNDyNet project, financed by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) as part of the Stromnetze Research Initiative.
