Core Concepts

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.
