What you can do with this MCP connector
You're connecting your AI client to DNV Renewables. It gives you access to global energy resource data for wind and solar projects. You can get wind and solar assessments, estimate annual energy production (AEP), and pull mesoscale climate data for planning. The server handles the whole data order process—from checking availability to downloading the final files.
Assess Wind Potential
To check wind potential, you can use get_wind_resource_data to pull wind speed, direction, and temperature data for any global site. get_solar_resource_data gathers the specific solar resource data—GHI, DNI, DHI, and temperature—you need for designing PV systems at a location. You can also use get_mesoscale_climate_data to pull long-term climate model data for deep resource analysis of a specific area.
Estimate Energy Output
Need to know how much power a wind turbine will make? Run get_energy_yield_estimate to calculate the predicted annual energy production (AEP) for a wind turbine at a specific location. The server keeps track of all your data needs.
Manage Data Requests
When you need a big chunk of data, you don't just get it. You place an order. You start by checking if the data is even available using check_data_availability, or you can see every order you've ever placed with list_all_orders and list_available_datasets to see what datasets are ready. You submit a request using place_data_order to get a file generated for climate data extraction.
You check on the progress with get_order_status until the job finishes, then you download the file using download_order_data. You can also figure out the coverage areas for any dataset with locate_data_nodes.
This whole setup lets your AI client manage complex data workflows. You're not just reading numbers; you're running a full, professional assessment process that covers onshore and offshore sites worldwide. You've got access to over 40 different climate and renewable energy datasets, and the server manages data orders and tracks resource availability for you.

Real-World Use Cases
Initial Site Screening
A developer needs to know if a proposed wind farm site is viable. They prompt their agent to first run check_data_availability for the coordinates. The agent confirms wind data is available, then calls get_wind_resource_data to pull the necessary speed and direction metrics for the initial feasibility report.
Optimizing PV Array Size
A solar consultant needs to size a PV array in New Mexico. The agent uses get_solar_resource_data to confirm the GHI and DNI values, then uses get_mesoscale_climate_data to factor in temperature variability over the year, ensuring the final design is robust.
Generating a Full Report
An energy analyst needs a comprehensive report. The agent first calls get_energy_yield_estimate with the turbine specs and site data. Then, it uses place_data_order to pull historical time series data, finally using download_order_data to compile the full evidence package.
Inventorying Data Needs
A researcher needs to know what climate datasets exist for a study. They run list_available_datasets to browse the 40+ options, then use locate_data_nodes to confirm the spatial resolution for the specific datasets they choose.
The Tradeoffs
Assuming all data is instant
Asking the agent to run 'Get the full 20-year time series for Site X' and expecting an immediate answer. This will fail and timeout because large data sets require processing.
→
You must plan the data extraction. First, run check_data_availability. Then, use place_data_order to queue the request. Check the status later using get_order_status before attempting to use download_order_data.
Using the wrong resource tool
Trying to calculate solar yield using get_wind_resource_data, or vice versa. The tools are highly specialized for their resource type.
→
Always use the specific tool: get_solar_resource_data for PV projects, and get_wind_resource_data for wind farm assessments. Never mix them.
Forgetting the catalog
Assuming a needed climate variable (like specific aerosol data) exists because it's common knowledge. You won't know what's available.
→
Start with list_available_datasets to see the full catalog. If you need to check specific data for a location, use locate_data_nodes to confirm coverage.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your project requires validated, long-term climate and energy resource data. You need to calculate AEP, assess global wind/solar potential, or manage complex, multi-step data orders. Don't use this if you just need simple, real-time data (like current local temperature); you'll need a live weather API. If you only need to check if a dataset exists, use check_data_availability. If you already know the exact data you need and just want to start the download process, use place_data_order directly. Never try to skip the status check (get_order_status) before downloading.

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 11 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Available Capabilities
The manual data pipeline is a nightmare of tabs and wait times.
Today, assessing a potential site means juggling multiple dashboards: checking wind speed on one tab, GHI on another, and then manually requesting historical data from a third portal. You end up downloading CSVs, renaming them, and pasting them into a spreadsheet just to start the calculation. It's slow, and you're always guessing if you got the right time range or the right data node.
With the DNV Renewables MCP Server, your agent handles the whole sequence. It first confirms data availability via `check_data_availability`. Then, it uses `get_solar_resource_data` and `get_wind_resource_data` to pull current metrics, and it can calculate the full yield using `get_energy_yield_estimate`—all in a single conversation.
DNV Renewables MCP Server: Estimate energy yield and run resource checks.
You no longer have to manually track data orders. Instead of submitting a form, waiting for an email, and then logging back in to check a status page, you just ask your agent to run the data request. The agent submits the order using `place_data_order` and continuously monitors the status via `get_order_status` until the download link is ready.
The process is fully automated. You just tell the AI what you want, and it manages the entire backend workflow, delivering the final data file via `download_order_data`.

How does the data ordering process work? +
The data ordering process is: 1) Check availability for your location, 2) Place an order with dataset, coordinates, and time period, 3) Wait ~30 seconds for processing, 4) Check order status until 'success', 5) Download the generated time series file. Note: Download links expire after 12 hours, so download promptly. Rate limit is 10 orders per 10 minutes.
What is mesoscale climate data and why is it useful? +
Mesoscale climate data comes from numerical weather prediction models that simulate atmospheric conditions at regional scales (typically 1-50 km resolution). Unlike single-point measurements, mesoscale data provides spatially consistent, long-term time series essential for renewable energy resource assessment. It's used for wind farm siting, solar project planning, and long-term energy yield analysis because it captures multi-decadal climate patterns that short-term measurements miss.
How do I use the `check_data_availability` tool to plan a project? +
The check_data_availability tool shows exactly what data exists for your site. You enter coordinates and a time frame, and it returns available datasets, variables, and time periods before you commit to an order.
What should I do if my `download_order_data` file doesn't work? +
If the file fails, first check the status using get_order_status. If the status is 'Success' and the download link is provided, try downloading again. Remember, the files auto-delete after 12 hours.
Can I use `get_wind_resource_data` for offshore projects? +
Yes, the system supports global coverage for both onshore and offshore locations. You simply provide the geographic coordinates for the site you're assessing.
How does `get_mesoscale_climate_data` help with long-term planning? +
It provides long-term climate model data, which is key for assessing resource changes over decades. This data helps you model resource potential beyond typical annual variations.
