Weather & Data Insights Improve sustainability and energy efficiency when you put weather data, insights, and modeling to good use. Leverage Weather Insights and Data With today’s available technology, there are now vast possibilities to improve energy efficiency and decrease energy costs by leveraging weather insights. Using hyperlocal weather measurements from weather stations and sensing networks allows you to obtain valuable, highly accurate data for energy networks and building automation. This data can then be used to create hyperlocal weather forecasts and optimize energy consumption based on the forecast. Smart cities encounter many weather and environmental challenges. Vaisala weather stations and their insights can help cities navigate these challenges and become more efficient by preparing cities and businesses for weather events, optimizing traffic, performing proper street maintenance, dialing in heating networks and more. Even the smallest changes in temperature, solar radiation, precipitation, humidity, and wind speed and direction can affect energy demand. Hyperlocal weather information offers an excellent opportunity to optimize the heating network.
