ANNEX A Definition of indicators

ANNEX A: DEFINITION OF INDICATORS
The following naming conventions (see Table 3) are applied in order to define the naming of the indicators in SynaptiQ.

TABLE 3 : SYNAPTIQ INDICATOR NAMING CONVENTIONS

1. Indicator grouping by order of In order to group indicators in the user interface lists, the indicator name begins with the most
words generic word and specifies in the next words. E.g. Energy Expected and not Expected Energy.

2. Implicit specification Indicator specifications that are considered as the most generic case, are omitted for reasons of
simplification. E.g. The irradiation indicator that uses sensor data (if available) and fills data gaps
with satellite irradiation data, is considered as the standard irradiation indicator and is therefore
named Irradiation. E.g. The energy yield calculated from the inverter data is considered the most
generic energy indicator and therefore named Energy.

3. Different indicator source is If the same indicator (that is calculated in the same way) can have several sources of data, the
specified between brackets non-standard data sources are specific between brackets. E.g. Availaibility (Sensor) is calculated
using only sensor irradiation data while the Availability uses sensor data, but complements it with
satellite irradiation data when sensor data are missing.

4. Different indicator calculation If the same indicator can be calculated in several ways, the non-standard calculation method will
algorithms are specified between be specific between brackets. E.g. Availability (Gross) is a non-standard method of calculation
brackets availability in which missing data are considered as unavailable.

The table below provides a description of all indicators available in SynaptiQ. For each of the indicators, it is indicated at which granularity and for which
SynaptiQ (see Table 2) object the indicator is available.
