Introduction to pvnode API

REST API · JSON

pvnode API

PV power forecasts, monitoring data, and yield analysis for solar installations.

Quickstart

Get API Key

API Reference

pvnode is a photovoltaic data API. Each endpoint accepts a set of system parameters and returns modeled PV data — as a time series, aggregated values, or a full system simulation, depending on the endpoint.

A basic request only requires location, slope, and orientation. The API also supports more detailed configurations: horizon profiles, row shading, tracker systems, module technology (PERC, TOPCon, CdTe), temperature coefficients, albedo, cable losses, and more. All parameters are optional beyond the basics — add them when precision matters.

All endpoints follow the same pattern: a single GET request with query parameters, a JSON response. No SDKs required, no setup beyond an API key.

V1 Endpoints

stable
GET/v1/forecast

Power Forecast

15-minute PV power predictions. +7 days ahead, −30 days back. Updated multiple times daily. The main endpoint for most use cases.

Resolution: 15 min·Range: −30d to +7d
GET/v1/recent

Monitoring Reference

High-resolution reference performance for the last 6 months. Compare expected vs. actual output to detect faults and degradation.

Resolution: 15 min·History: 6 months

Additional Endpoints

GET/v1/history

Historical time series back to 2015.

GET/v1/yield

Annual yield (kWh/kWp) with full loss chain.

GET/v1/system

PV + battery + heat pump + load simulation.

V2 API — Coming Soon

We're working on the next generation of the pvnode API with improved endpoints and new features. We'd love your feedback — reach out at info@pvnode.com
