Zusammenfassung:Method of forecasting heat output of a solar collector. First, heat output for a plurality of solar collectors is simulated, located at respectively different geographic locations but having the same solar collector settings as the solar collector to be forecasted. The simulation is performed by calculating a dataset of theoretical heat outputs for the plurality of solar collectors, based on acquired 802 related weather data. From the calculated dataset a function is adjusted 810, the function defining the theoretical heat output of any solar collector related to its geographic location, e.g. latitude, solar Direct Normal Irradiation, DNI, and collector settings, e.g. operation temperature, and forecasting the heat output of the solar collector based on the adjusted function.
