Questions
Where does this data come from?
Germany: the public Marktstammdatenregister of the Bundesnetzagentur, including units in planning. We load the official files, keep projects of 1 MW and up and record changes between loads.
Does the list show private owners?
No. Operators are shown only when they are companies. Private persons, sole traders and names that could belong to a person are left out, and the data holds no coordinates or street addresses.
How often is it updated?
Monthly. Each load records new projects, changes of stage, capacity or connection date, and projects that left the register.
