Metered windpower now up to 2430MW but.......

[orkneycadian]

I think most reasonable people would see a 50% sample as pretty good and fairly representative of what the other 50% is doing if they were geographically dispersed evenly across the UK.

But Scotland is geographically well represented and it is reasonable to assume that the aggregate performance of all the windfarms connected in Scotland will be similar to the metered mix at any one time.

Does that mean we could get ywindy to factor up to at least what is produced across Scotland? His data is very light on Orkney turbines - We now have something like 33.25 MW connected on Orkney, with the energisation of the 4.5 MW Hammars Hill Windfarm last week. But only 8.25 MW of this is on ywindy's radar (less than 25%), so it gives a very disproportionate picture of what happens this side of the water. He doesn't like factoring up the whole UK, but in light of his above posting, I see no reason why he cannot factor up the Scottish production only, and publish it as Scotland data?
