Just wanted to say, as someone who works in the industry, wind FPNs are sometimes incorrect.

Grid have access to "power available" signals, but this is not public data.

Absolutely! I chose FPN data as it's the best available to me in near realtime but as you say, it's not reliable.

This is partly why I've been collaborating with someone on a prediction feature that tries to guess generation using realtime wind conditions and historic actual generation data at various wind speeds.

I'm hoping to improve things as time goes on and I learn more about the underlying data (and its quirks).
