# Power Forecast

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Preview** - Power Forecast is currently in preview. Features and availability may change.
{% endhint %}

Jua's Power Forecast is an end-to-end model trained directly on actual generation data, delivering renewable energy generation forecasts in MW for power trading and grid management.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Power Forecast vs Market Aggregates MW** — The Power Forecast is a purpose-built model trained on real generation data, providing a forecast of **actual production**. [Market Aggregates with MW output](/api-v2/query-engine/market-aggregates.md) applies generic power curves to weather forecasts, providing a model-specific forecast of **potential production**. Power Forecast is significantly more accurate for the zones it covers. Both use the same facility datasets.

**Need a load (demand) forecast today?** The end-to-end Power Forecast does not yet cover Load, but a population-weighted load forecast in MW is already available for \~48 European zones via the Query Engine [Market Aggregates MW endpoint](/api-v2/query-engine/market-aggregates.md) using `weighting=population` with `unit=mw`. It applies a temperature-driven load curve to 2m air temperature and returns a `load_mw` column.
