NEWS: UKPN shines a light on 'hidden' solar with AI

UK Power Networks is using AI to detect and quantify “hidden” rooftop solar not directly measured by grid operators. (Energy Live News)

  • Developed with Open Climate Fix, the tool analyzes voltage and weather data to estimate real-time output from small, unmetered systems—like the thousands of homes and businesses that generate solar power daily.

  • It’s good timing: UK solar installations are on track to hit 90 GW in the next 10 years, up from just 20 GW in 2023.
