Model Validation for Energy Planning

Use `get_historical_observations` to validate your renewable energy production models. This tool pulls actual historical data, letting you compare against theoretical output curves. It's crucial for proving ROI or adjusting maintenance schedules. You can run checks comparing past performance metrics to projected outcomes.

Real-Time Energy System Assessment

For operational optimization, check the `get_renewable_energy_farm_data` tool. This provides hourly energy generation forecasts up to 10 days out, plus recent 5-minute production estimates. This data stream is perfect for managing energy trades or quickly assessing system capacity when you're working on local scripts.

Site Location and Infrastructure Scouting

`search_locations` starts the process by returning place details, including elevation and coordinates. This initial search data feeds into subsequent API calls. After finding a site, you can use `get_closest_weather_station` to grab station metadata and current conditions needed for preliminary feasibility reports.
