Report: Weather Dataset Needs for Planning and Analyzing Modern Power Systems

This report from ESIG’s Weather Datasets Project Team focuses on the weather data needs for modeling power systems that are becoming increasingly weather-dependent as shares of wind, solar, and battery storage increase, and as HVAC and transportation loads are electrified. The report discusses the gaps in our existing data and modeling approaches, and outlines a process for building the robust weather datasets needed for reliable, resilient systems.
