Live and historic wind generation around Great Britain

by u/robhawkes

GB Renewables Map an energy experiment created entirely in my free time (day job is visualisation at Octopus Energy).

It's an interactive map showing live generation for major wind farms in Great Britain, showing what each wind farm is generating both now and in the past, and where that generation is physically located.

You can play with it here: https://renewables-map.robinhawkes.com

Generation data comes from the Elexon balancing system, which is a public dataset. There's an "About" section on the site that goes into detail on the various public data sources and how some of the features work. I also document a lot of this on my Twitter @robhawkes if you're curious.

Animated weather data is from WeatherLayers and shows current and historic wind conditions on the map, providing context to wind generation around the country.

History mode allows you to go back in time and see wind generation and weather conditions for a particular date and time. It's great for exploring days of record generation, such as the 21.6GW record on January 10th, 2023!

Prediction mode lets you see what wind farms are estimated to be generating using current wind conditions and model based on historic generation and wind speeds. Is a wind farm generating as you expect, or is there something to look into?

An experimental feature allows you to see what future wind farms could be generating today (or in the past!) if they were already built and operational. If you click the "sparkle" button on the map you'll get to see what the upcoming 3.6GW Dogger Bank wind farm is estimated to generate if it was operational today.

This is just the start and there are many more features to come!
