In July 2021, enercast announced a contract to provide power forecasting and scheduling services for the renewable portfolio of Ukraine's state enterprise Guaranteed Buyer. The announcement described support through USAID's Energy Security Project and placed the work in the context of integrating variable wind and solar generation.

The announced scope

The report said that forecast data and expertise would support Guaranteed Buyer's renewable portfolio. It also referred to orders from private wind-farm operators. The historical capacity figures described the position at the time of the announcement. This archive does not confirm the current portfolio or the continuation, scope or terms of those contracts.

Why a portfolio forecast was important

A portfolio manager needs to estimate renewable output before delivery and react when expected generation changes. Site-specific forecasts can be aggregated, but the aggregation must retain a consistent issue time, valid interval and asset list. Measurements and scheduling processes also need clear ownership. The original announcement described these services as part of a broader effort to manage renewable variability.
