Monitor solar data — audit irradiance and sites via AI.

4 tools Official Updated Jun 28, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire solar energy research and site auditing workflow with SolarAnywhere, the authoritative source for high-resolution solar irradiance data. By connecting the SolarAnywhere API to your agent, you transform complex meteorological searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly retrieve real-time irradiance levels, audit typical meteorological year (TMY) data, and query specific site metadata without you ever touching a technical portal. Whether you are conducting renewable energy research or managing regional solar fleet constraints, your agent acts as a real-time solar consultant, ensuring your data is always verified and precise.

What you can do

  • Irradiance Auditing — Retrieve real-time Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) and Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) data for any coordinate pair instantly.
  • Site Oversight — Audit all registered solar sites in your catalog to maintain a clear view of regional distribution and scale.
  • Weather Discovery — Query Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) data to understand long-term solar potential for your energy projects.
  • Atmospheric Intelligence — Retrieve temperature and irradiance metadata to assist in deep-dive solar performance classification.
  • Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your solar research workflow is always operational.

Get solar irradiance for latitude 34.0522 and longitude -118.2437 using SolarAnywhere.

I've retrieved the real-time solar data! The Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) is currently 850 W/m² and the temperature is 25°C. Would you like the full DNI and DHI metadata for these coordinates?

Show Typical Meteorological Year data for 'Napa Valley'.

I've identified the coordinates for Napa Valley and retrieved the TMY data. The long-term solar potential is identified as having a high consistency for energy production. I can provide the monthly average irradiance metadata if you'd like.

List all registered solar sites in my account.

I've retrieved the site catalog from SolarAnywhere! You have 5 registered sites, including 'Solar-West-Alpha' and 'Utility-One'. I can provide the exact coordinate metadata and GHI data for any of these sites.
