alt Hacker NewsIn the energy world, this should be such a boon over the classic NWP (Numerical Weather Prediction; complex ML models), but I've not seen it implementated. Anyone with experience of these models over classic NWP?

A few weather forecast sites in Europe have them on their websites. It's just another forecast you can select and compare in an ensemble.
Problem is that the WN3 grid is still quite rough (5km) - but a that's a brutal improvement for many places compared to many other global models.
Quite a few country-scale models go down to a 1-2km grid nowadays. This is very helpful in complex geography like mountains and alleys.

Why should they be such a boon? High-resolution, regional NWP with fast refresh has been a standard tool for over a decade.
