Actually the best data out there
WxBeacon forecast uses data from Vaisala weather stations which provide "reference-grade” accuracy and reliability, meaning others calibrate their sensors against them. We believe the best forecasts do not tolerate compromises.
An enhanced weather forecast developed for your energy network - powered by the most accurate data on the market
We take care of the set up, analysis, and delivery
Our experts will install and operate suitable sensors in your preferred locations, making sure you get data from the locations that truly matter to you. Because your energy demand forecast deserves the most relevant input.
The most comprehensive forecast, designed for your business
Tailoring your forecast with local sensors and our in-house numerical models will deliver data that outperforms any competitors in terms of accuracy. The cherry on top — installation is hands-off and easy as 1-2-3.

WHITE PAPER
Improve your forecast accuracy by up to 36% and take action with the best possible data.
The ability to predict the future sounds more like the plot of a movie than something based on reality. Yet through more than a century of advances in our knowledge of how weather works, applied mathematics, and ever-increasing computational power, humanity can do just that: predict the future.
Unfortunately, this is only true for systems that follow the laws of physics (sorry, stock market!), but if you consider it, weather forecasting is one of humanity’s most outstanding achievements.
