Measured Data quality
Tier
live · T1a-live-tso

The transmission system operator publishes an hourly series, and the calibration rate comes from the same jurisdiction.

Live TSO feed, own-jurisdiction rate (±2σ from 5-yr backfill, fallback ±15%)

Uncertainty
±15% of peak GW

Regions with a five-year backfill archive use ±2σ of observed annual variance instead of this default fraction.

Published envelope for this tier. See the uncertainty model.

Source provenance
verified · Verified upstream link

The snapshot value comes from a verified upstream feed or anchor.

Tier, provenance, and source are read at build time from src/lib/regions.ts — the same table the globe draws from. The validation record below is generated separately and gated against it by npm run ci:docs-drift.

Validation record

Last updated: 2026-08-20 · Sprint: S1 + HB integration · Paper section: Technical Validation §4.2

  • Rate source documented in: docs/methodology/ (see links below)
  • Uniform across backfill years: n/a — no backfill

Published anchors

  • TSO annual curtailment (latest published): CEN monthly ERV workbooks publish plant-level hourly wind reductions after month close; latest loader snapshot parsed the February 2026 workbook
  • Ember annual:
  • IRENA annual:
  • Other: CEN Reducciones ERV monthly XLSX wind sheet

Discrepancy analysis

No historical backfill parquet yet. The live snapshot now comes directly from CEN monthly wind-reduction workbooks rather than a typical wind profile.

Known limitations

CEN publishes the workbook after month close, so the feed is measured but not real-time. The loader parses the Resumen-DiarioHorario-Eolico wind sheet and sums PE- plant rows into hourly regional reductions. Daily PDF apportionment is currently implemented only for Atacama solar.
