Core Concepts
The building blocks for interacting with the Rebase Platform
The Rebase Platform enables to work in an object-oriented way when handling energy assets and forecasting models. The underlying data model is flexible and can be customized by the user better align with their specific workflows.
Assets
The following energy assets are currently supported in the platform:
SolarSite
WindSite
LocalizedSite
ElectricityDemandSite
All these objects are derived from the EnergyAsset
base class.
Time series
While assets represent the static meta data of that specific asset (e.g. solar
panels orientation and tilt), the TimeSeries
object is used to represent dynamic
data such as power production and conumption.
Models
The Model
object represent energy forecasting models based on physics, statistics, machine
learning or even simple rules. Every forecasting models is associated with
at least one energy asset.
