Weatherbit Accuracy Europe 2026: EPT-2 Leads on Wind & Solar

1 / 5

Weatherbit accuracy in Europe is solid for 2 m temperature but weaker on 100 m wind and surface solar radiation, which drive European power trading P&L.

2 / 5

EPT-2 is the only model that beats ECMWF HRES on every lead time and every energy-relevant variable across more than 10,000 European ground stations.

3 / 5

National radar services lead precipitation nowcasting at sub-6-hour lead times, while EPT-2 matches or exceeds ECMWF HRES at 24–120 hour horizons.

4 / 5

A 1 GW wind portfolio gaining four percentage points of forecast accuracy saves about €1.5 million per year; the same gain on solar saves €3 million.

5 / 5

See how EPT-2 performs on your portfolio by benchmarking it against your current provider on the Jua platform in under 5 minutes.
